Abstract

We derive a logarithmic law for the third-order streamwise structure function in the logarithmic layer of a boundary layer. The derivation is based on Townsend's hypothesis and the Navier-Stokes equation. In addition to the logarithmic law, we get the Townsend-Perry constant via asymptotic matching. Both the scaling and the constant agree well with high Reynolds number data.
