Turbulent Boundary Layer — Log-Law Profile

The universal law of the wall describes turbulent velocity profiles in three regions: viscous sublayer (u⁺=y⁺), buffer layer, and log-law region (u⁺=(1/κ)ln(y⁺)+B). Particle visualization shows turbulent structure.

u⁺ = (1/κ) ln(y⁺) + B  |  u⁺ = u/u_τ  |  y⁺ = yu_τ/ν
