Turbulent flows over a wavy wall are investigated in channels with a wavy bottom and a flat top with different channel heights. Flow structures are determined from proper orthogonal decompositions of velocity fields measured with particle image velocimetry. Three different channel heights are considered, which are characterized by blockage ratios β (half channel height to wave amplitude ratio) 3.3, 6.7, and 10. Measurements are evaluated at comparable Reynolds numbers (Re) around 10 000. Structural similarity of large-scale structures, which is valid at β = 6.7 and 10, no longer holds at β = 3.3. Furthermore, characteristic regions of flows over wavy walls exhibit different locations in the case of the smallest channel height.
