The direct measurement of wall shear stress in turbulent boundary layers (TBL) is challenging, therefore requiring it to be indirectly determined from mean profile measurements. Most popular methods assume the mean streamwise velocity to satisfy either a logarithmic law in the inner layer or a composite velocity profile with many tuned constants for the entire TBL, and require reliable data from the noise-prone inner layer. A simple method is proposed to determine the wall shear stress in zero pressure gradient TBL from measured mean profiles, without requiring noise-prone near-wall data. The method requires a single point measurement of mean streamwise velocity and mean shear stress in the outer layer, preferably between $20$ to $50$ $%$ of the TBL, and an estimate of boundary layer thickness and shape factor. The friction velocities obtained using the proposed method agree with reference values, to within $3$ $%$ over a range of Reynolds number.

The modified Townsend-Perry attached eddy model of Vassilicos et al (2015) combines the outer peak/plateau behaviour of rms streamwise turbulence velocity profiles and the Townsend-Perry log-decay of these profiles at higher distances from the wall.
This model was validated by these authors for high Reynolds number tur- bulent pipe flow data and is shown here to describe equally well and with about the same parameter values turbulent boundary layer flow data from four different facilities and a wide range of Reynolds numbers. The model has predictive value as, when extrapolated to the extremely high Reynolds numbers of the SLTEST data obtained at the Great Salt Lake Desert atmospheric test facility, it matches these data quite well.
In-depth analyses of existing direct numerical simulations (DNS) data from various sources supported a logical and important classification of generic turbulent boundary layers (TBL), namely Type-A, -B and -C TBL, based on distribution patterns of ti
me-averaged wall-shear stress. Among these types, Type-A TBL and its related law, as represented by the DNS data of turbulence on a zero-pressure-gradient semi-infinite flat-plate, was investigated in terms of analytical formulations of velocity independent on Reynolds ( ) number. With reference to the analysis from von Karman in developing the conventional law-of-the-wall, the current study first physically distinguished the time-averaged local scale used by von Karman from the ensemble-averaged scale defined in the paper, and then derived the governing equations with the -independency under the ensemble-averaged scales. Based on indicator function (IDF) and TBL thickness, the sublayer partitions were rigorously defined. The analytical formulations for entire TBL, namely the complete law-of-the-wall, were established, including the formula in inner, buffer, semi-logarithmic (semi-log) and wake layer. The researches were featured by introducing the general damping and enhancing functions (GDF and GEF) and applying these functions to both linear and logarithmic coordinates. These law formulations were proved uniform and consistent in time-averaged local and ensemble-averaged scales, which were validated by the existing DNS and experiment data. Based on the similarity of relevant properly-scaled governing equations, the law formulations were logically reasoned being applicable to the temperature in Type-A thermal TBL. The findings advance the current understandings of the conventional TBL theory and its well-known foundations of law-of-the-wall.
On its way to turbulence, plane Couette flow - the flow between counter-translating parallel plates - displays a puzzling steady oblique laminar-turbulent pattern. We approach this problem via Galerkin modelling of the Navier-Stokes equations. The wa
ll-normal dependence of the hydrodynamic field is treated by means of expansions on functional bases fitting the boundary conditions exactly. This yields a set of partial differential equations for the spatiotemporal dynamics in the plane of the flow. Truncating this set beyond lowest nontrivial order is numerically shown to produce the expected pattern, therefore improving over what was obtained at cruder effective wall-normal resolution. Perspectives opened by the approach are discussed.
The effect of rotation on the boundary layers (BLs) in a Rayleigh-Benard (RB) system at a relatively low Rayleigh number, i.e. $Ra = 4times10^7$, is studied for different Pr by direct numerical simulations and the results are compared with laminar BL
theory. In this regime we find a smooth onset of the heat transfer enhancement as function of increasing rotation rate. We study this regime in detail and introduce a model based on the Grossmann-Lohse theory to describe the heat transfer enhancement as function of the rotation rate for this relatively low Ra number regime and weak background rotation $Rogtrsim 1$. The smooth onset of heat transfer enhancement observed here is in contrast to the sharp onset observed at larger $Ra gtrsim 10^8$ by Stevens {it{et al.}} [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf{103}}, 024503, 2009], although only a small shift in the Ra-Ro-Pr phase space is involved.
Wall cooling has substantial effects on the development of instabilities and transition processes in hypersonic boundary layers (HBLs). A sequence of linear stability theory, two-dimensional and non-linear three-dimensional DNSs is used to analyze Ma
ch~6 boundary layers, with wall temperatures ranging from near-adiabatic to highly cooled conditions, where the second-mode instability radiates energy. Fluid-thermodynamic analysis shows that this radiation comprises both acoustic as well as vortical waves. 2D simulations show that the conventional trapped nature of second-mode instability is ruptured. Although the energy efflux of both acoustic and vortical components increases with wall-cooling, the destabilization effect is much stronger and no significant abatement of pressure perturbations is realized. In the near-adiabatic HBL, the wavepacket remains trapped within the boundary layer and attenuates outside the region of linear instability. However, wavepackets in the cooled-wall HBLs amplify and display nonlinear distortion, and transition more rapidly. The structure of the wavepacket displays different behavior; moderately-cooled walls show bifurcation into a leading turbulent head region and a trailing harmonic region, while highly-cooled wall cases display lower convection speeds and significant wavepacket elongation, with intermittent spurts of turbulence in the wake of the head region. This elongation effect is associated with a weakening of the lateral jet mechanism due to the breakdown of spanwise coherent structures. In moderately cooled-walls, the spatially-localized wall loading is due to coherent structures in the leading turbulent head region. In highly-cooled walls, the elongated near-wall streaks in the wake region of the wavepacket result in more than twice as large levels of skin friction and heat transfer over a sustained period of time.
