Refinement of wall-turbulence hypotheses

  • Published:
Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The correspondence between the hypotheses and the experimental data is examined. The distribution functions of the Prandtl mixing length near a smooth wall and the Komogorov turbulence scale in pipe flow are refined.
