Abstract
A new third-order model for shear driven boundary layer is presented and tested against large-eddy simulation (LES) data. Numerical solutions are obtained using mean flow components and second-order moments as input. The calculated vertical profiles of the variances and turbulent kinetic energy fluxes and those provided by a LES experiment are compared and discussed
