摘要：
The mean streak spacing of approximately 100 wall units that is observed in wall-bounded turbulent shear flow is shown to be consistent with near-wall streamwise vortices optimally configured to gain the most energy over an appropriate turbulent eddy turnover time. The streak spacing arising from the optimal perturbation increases with distance from the wall and is nearly independent of Reynolds number, in agreement with experiment.
