Simulation of the turbulent boundary layer on a flat plate

Most of the studies about the boundary layer had been carried out analyzing the particular phenomena presented in each one of the different areas that divide this. Such it is before the case of the studies of Prandtl, who describes the boundary layer dividing it in two represented areas each one of them for an equation for separate, continued by Van Driest who is able to describe the behavior of these same areas in continuous form without arriving until the external area or trail of the boundary layer, which was studied by Coles in a very particular way without any connection with the mentioned areas. The present work develops a calculation methodology to incorporate a turbulence model in the equations of quantity of movement and of the energy, with which is possible to describe in continuous form the profiles of speed and temperature through the boundary layer, involving the three areas that divide this layer. These results are in agreement with experimental data obtained in the literature.
