Description:
In this paper the dimensional-analysis approach to wall turbulence of Perry & Abell (1977) has been extended in a number of directions. Further recent developments of the attached-eddy hypothesis of Townsend (1976) and the model of Perry & Chong (1982) are given, for example, the incorporation of a Kolmogoroff (1941) spectral region. These previous analyses were applicable only to the ‘wall region’ and are extended here to include the whole turbulent region of the flow. The dimensional-analysis approach and the detailed physical modelling are consistent with each other and with new experimental data presented here. © 1986, Cambridge University Press.
