“…It is universally accepted that viscous effects dominate in this region and thus the spectrum best collapses when scaled based on kinematic viscosity, ν, and other inner layer variables (wall shear stress, τ w ; and friction velocity, u τ ) [7]. Early measurements conducted by Schewe [31] within this frequency region indicated a dependence of the spectrum on ω −7/3 , however more recent measurements with smaller transducer sizes have shown an attenuation slope ranging from ω −5 to ω −7 for very high frequencies [8,17,22,23,26,28,30]. The transition from the ω −7/3 minor decay region to the larger decay region seems to relate to the transition from the buffer layer to the viscous sub-layer within the TBL [17].…”
