Using the flow governing equation approach to similarity, Weyburne (D. Weyburne, arXiv:1701.02364, 2016) recently showed that for 2-D turbulent boundary layer flows, the Prandtl Plus scalings are NOT, in general, the proper similarity…
Recent theoretical results together with established theory have identified the displacement thickness and the velocity at the boundary layer edge as similarity scaling parameter candidates for the wall-bounded turbulent boundary layer. In…
The turbulent boundary layer scaling parameters for the velocity profile are usually associated with either the inner viscous region or the outer boundary layer region. It has been a long-held view that complete similarity of the velocity…
New thickness and shape parameters for describing the thermal boundary layer formed by 2-D fluid flow along a heated (cooled) wall are presented. The parameters are based on probability distribution function methodology in which the thermal…
The Prandtl Plus scaling parameters are reexamined theoretically. The flow governing equations approach is used to examine similarity issues of the inner region of wall-bounded turbulent flows as well as laminar flow cases. It is found that…
New scaling relations for the mean velocity and Reynolds shear stress in viscous sublayer were proposed based on the application of matched asymptotic expansion method to the mean momentum balance. It was shown that the new parameter…
According to a model of the turbulent boundary layer proposed by the authors, in the absence of external turbulence the intermediate region between the viscous sublayer and the external flow consists of two sharply separated self-similar…
The paper discusses a variant of the local similarity theory, employing the second moment of vertical velocity and the "spectral" Prandtl mixing length as basic parameters. This approach allows expressing the turbulent exchange coefficient,…
A model-based description of the scaling and radial location of turbulent fluctuations in turbulent pipe flow is presented and used to illuminate the scaling behaviour of the very large scale motions. The model is derived by treating the…
A new statistical definition for the mean turbulent boundary layer thickness is introduced, based on identification of the point where the streamwise velocity skewness changes sign, from negative to positive, in the outermost region of the…
Turbulent wall flows offer the most direct means for understanding the effects of boundaries and viscosity on turbulent fluctuations. Available data on mean-square fluctuations in these flows show apparent contradiction with classical…
Near-wall turbulent velocities in turbulent channel flows are decomposed into small-scale and large-scale components at $y^+<100$ by improving the predictive inner-outer model of Baars et al. [Phys. Rev. Fluids 1, 054406 (2016)], where…
Castillo and George (Castillo, L. and George, W., AIAA J. 39, 41(2001)) developed a flow governing equation approach for describing the turbulent outer boundary layer region. The approach was used to develop similarity criteria for the mean…
Prandtl's secondary flows of the second kind generated by laterally-varying roughness are studied using the linearised Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes approach proposed in Zampino et al (2022). The momentum equations are coupled to the…
Wang and Castillo have developed empirical parameters for scaling the temperature profile of the turbulent boundary layer flowing over a heated wall in the paper X. Wang and L. Castillo, J. Turbul., 4, 1(2003). They presented experimental…
Boundary layer flow over a realistic porous wall might contain both the effects of wall-permeability and wall-roughness. These two effects are typically examined in the context of a rough-wall flow, i.e., by defining a ``roughness'' length…
Wall-pressure fluctuations beneath turbulent boundary layers drive noise and structural fatigue through interactions between fluid and structural modes. Conventional predictive models for the spectrum--such as the widely accepted Goody…
We investigate the convective stability of a thin, infinite fluid layer with a rectangular cross-section, subject to imposed heat fluxes at the top and bottom and fixed temperature along the vertical sides. The instability threshold depends…
Modeling of wall-bounded turbulent flows is still an open problem in classical physics, with only modest progress made in the last few decades beyond the so-called `log law', which describes only the intermediate region in wall-bounded…
Despite its limitations, Prandtl's mixing length model is widely applied in modelling turbulent free shear flows. Prandtl's extended model addresses many of the shortfalls of the original model, but is not so widely used, in part due to…
