Summary

Existing effective viscosity models which have been very valuable in the mean field closure method for turbulent boundary layer computation have shown certain undesirable limitations for certain realistic but general boundary layer flows. The more general flows usually involve non-negligible considerations of pressure gradients and such wall conditions as roughness, curvature and aspiration or transpiration in varying degrees of importance. The effects of these external and wall influences have, unfortunately, been underplayed by most existing effective viscosity models. The present model of the effective viscosity is developed for a general flow and has shown remarkable agreement with experimentation, without being any more complex than existing models.
