Abstract
The possibilities of remote acoustic diagnostics of flows are experimentally and theoretically studied. A Karman vortex street behind a cylinder is used as a model. The vortex temperature exceeded that of the surrounding medium. A laboratory experiment carried out in a low-turbulence wind tunnel at Re∼100 has shown that vorticity, stall rate, spatial period, and vortex temperature can be found from the characteristics of sound scattered by the flow.
