Abstract

An algebraic eddy viscosity model based on a new scale dependent on boundary layer flow is analyzed. Results show that the integral characteristics of the turbulent boundary layer including the location of transition, skin friction coefficient and velocity distribution across the boundary layer are in good agreement with available data. A logarithmic velocity law can likewise be modelled with equal success.
