Figure Legend:
Configurations with four tabs and St = 0.7 swirl wall pressure distributions. CB data (solid symbols) on left axis and OW data (hollow symbols) on right axis. CFD nondimensionalized by the experimental 〈qt,exp〉. CFD results extracted along θ = 0 deg and θ = 45 deg planes. Experimental CB taps located at θ = 0 deg and OW taps at θ = 45 deg. (a) AR = 1.61 diffuser, (b) AR = 1.91 diffuser, (c) AR = 2.73 diffuser, and (d) AR = 6.18 diffuser.
