Abstract
In this study, we exploit the Renard-Deck identity [J. Fluid Mech. 790, 339 (2016)10.1017/jfm.2016.12] to decompose the mean friction drag in adverse-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers (APG-TBLs) into three components, associated with viscous dissipation, turbulence kinetic energy production, and spatial growth of the flow, respectively. We consider adverse-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers developing on flat plates and airfoils, with friction Reynolds numbers in the range 200 APA: Fan, Y., Li, W., Atzori, M., Pozuelo, R., Schlatter, P., & Vinuesa, R.
