Abstract: In his now classical paper on pressure gradient turbulent boundary layers, Clauser concluded that equilibrium flows were very special flows difficult to achieve experimentally and that few flows ...

Abstract: Of the many aspects of the long-studied field of turbulence, the zero-pressure-gradient boundary layer is probably the most investigated, and perhaps also the most reviewed. Turbulence is a ...

Abstract: By using the RANS boundary layer equations, it will be shown that the outer part of an adverse pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer tends to remain in equilibrium similarity, even near ...

Abstract: Based on the theory of similarity analysis and the analogy between momentum and energy transport equations, the temperature scalings have been derived for forced convection turbulent boundary ...
