On the generation of turbulent wall friction
Open accessAbstract
The formation of streaky velocity structures in the near wall region of turbulent boundary layers is studied through a simplified two-dimensional computational model in the plane normal to the average velocity. It is shown that the redistribution of the longitudinal velocity by streamwise vortices produces features very similar to those observed in the experiments, and that compact streamwise vortices form naturally from more general vorticity distributions. It is also shown, both numerically and analytically, that one effect of the formation of the streaks is to increase the average wall friction, and it is suggested that this effect is responsible for the higher friction in turbulent boundary layers, as opposed to laminar ones. An approximate quantitative analysis of the process supports this assumption.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
