Scaling of mean skin friction in turbulent boundary layers, and fully-developed pipe and channel flows

Shivsai Ajit Dixit, Abhishek Gupta, Harish Choudhary +1

An asymptotic $-1/2$ power-law scaling and a semi-empirical finite-$Re$ model were recently presented by Dixit et al. (2020) for skin friction in zero-pressure-gradient (ZPG) turbu…
