Abstract
Aerodynamic force measurements and a flow field survey were carried out on a sphere rotating perpendicular to the flow direction in order to investigate the effect of the rotation on the flow parameters at Reynolds numbers in the range of 0.68×105 ► Experimental investigation of the Magnus effect on rotating spheres. ► Examination of high Reynolds numbers. ► Effect of rotation on boundary layer separation. ► Visualization of the negative Magnus effect. ► Effect of support interference on boundary layer separation.
