Abstract

We use the Reduced Navier-Stokes (RNS) equations for the simulation of the nonlinear evolution of streaks in a flat plate boundary layer. The RNS are asymptotically derived from the Navier Stokes equations for Re » 1, and they are appropriated for flow configurations with one slow scale and two short scales. We derive the RNS with the appropriate boundary conditions, comment the details of the numerical method used, and compare our 3D streak simulations with the results present in the literature (computed using DNS and PSE).
