For a given field, can anyone tell me how to calculate u+?

u+=U/u_tau
u_tau=sqrt(tau_w/rho)
tau_w=mu*(∂u/∂y)|y=0

Am I in the right way?

Merry Christmas to You All.
Daniel

Hello Daniel,

you could write your own application if you need u+.

By the way here http://www.cfd-online.com/cgi-bin/Op...8488#POST18488

is computed u_tau y /nu, so you can modify it to extract u+.

Rosario.
