Memory effects in turbulent motions

Abstract

The present state of the question of relaxation (memory) phenomena in turbulent wall and free boundary layers is reviewed. A simple derivation of the basic differential equation of the relaxation is proposed, and the region of applicability of this equation is extended to motion in the preseparation region of a boundary layer. The importance of taking into account the influence of relaxation processes is illustrated by a comparison with the available experimental data of calculations of the tangential Reynolds stresses in accordance with the relaxation theory and the local theory based on the Boussinesq hypothesis.
