An experimental study of developing flow in a rectangular duct with arrays of blocks was carried out at the Reynolds number of 3.26•~104 by using a Laser-Doppler velocimeter. The total amount of ten blocks are staggered each other and upstream tangent with rectangular cross section are set to obtain fully developed turbulent flow. The test section duct with blocks was placed at distance of 40.5 times hydraulic diameter from the duct inlet. Three components of mean velocity and the five components of the six Reynolds stresses were measured at nine different locations to clarify the development of turbulent structure. The measurement has been performed in the flow region between number 7 and number 8 blocks. As a result of this experimental study, it was pointed out as a characteristic feature that the two peaks of streamwise velocity were generated in the central and wall side regions respectively. The measurements of secondary flow vectors suggest that this phenomenon is caused by transforming lower velocity fluid to upward of block from leading edge of block and the large values of secondary flow, which reach maximum percentage of 50% for mean bulk velocity, are
