Two-component Navier-Stokes computational model of viscous sublayer turbulenceA new computational method is presented for developing a quantitative model of viscous sublayer turbulence in incompressible flow. Appropriate space- and time-dependent boundary conditions are constructed for the three fluctuating velocity components at the outer edge of the viscous sublayer. This construction is formulated so as to model essential coherent structures observed in experiments. Time dependent Navier-Stokes equations are used to compute the characteristics of turbulence in the viscous sublayer.
