This paper presents an experimental investigation of adverse pressure gradient turbulent flow over two rough surfaces and a reference smooth surface. The adverse pressure gradient was produced in an asymmetric diffuser whose opening angle was 3°. The rough surfaces comprised sand grains and gravels of nominal mean diameters of 1.55 mm and 4.22 mm, respectively. The tests were conducted at an approach flow velocity of 0.5 m/s and the momentum thickness Reynolds number varied from 900 to 3000. A particle image velocimetry technique was used for the velocity measurements. Profiles of the mean velocity, turbulent intensities, Reynolds stress ratios, mixing length, eddy viscosity and the production terms were then obtained to document the effects of adverse pressure gradient (APG) on low Reynolds number rough-wall turbulent boundary layers. The results indicate that APG thickens the boundary layer and roughness sublayer. The APG and surface roughness also enhanced the production of turbulence as well as the turbulence level when compared with the smooth-wall data.
