摘要
The regions with shear stress and mean velocity gradient of opposite sign often exist in complex turbulent shear flows.In these cases,the eddy viscosity hypothesis breaks down.Hinze regards the,departure from eddy viscosity hypothesis as a result from transportation of mean momentum over distance by the large structures and arrives at a shear stress expression including the second order derivatives of the mean velocity.However,his expression greatly overestimates the shear stress.This implies that the flow particles are unlikely to have enough memory of the mean momentum over distance.By assuming the departure from eddy viscosity hypothesis as a result from transportation of the shear stress contained in smaller eddies over distance by the large structures,the present author has arrived at a new shear stress expression.The shear stress estimated so far is in good agreement with the experiments.
