When do we see a viscous sublayer?
v = f (u*, , ks)
where ks == characteristic height of bed roughness
Roughness Re:
R* > 70 rough turbulent
no viscous sublayer
R* < 5 smooth turbulent
yes, viscous sublayer

2. Log Layer:
Turbulent case, Az is NOT constant in z
Az is a property of the flow, not just the fluid
To describe the velocity profile we need to develop a profile of Az.
Mixing Length formulation Prandtl (1925) which is a qualitative argument discussed in more detail “Boundary Layer Analysis” by Shetz, 1993
Assume that water masses act independently over a distance, l
Within l a change in momentum causes a fluctuation to adjacent fluid parcels.

Von Karmen (1930) hypothesized that close to a boundary, the turbulent exchange is related to distance from the boundary.

l = Kz

Intercept, b, depends on roughness of the bed - f (R*)

Hydraulic Roughness Length, zo
zo is the vertical intercept at which ūz = 0
zo = f ( viscous sublayer,
grain roughness,ripples & other bedforms,stratification)
This leads to two forms of the Karmen-Prandtl Equation
1) with viscous sublayer HSF
2) without viscous sublayer HRF

Can evaluate which case to use with R*
where ks == roughness length scale
in glued sand, pipe flow experiments
ks = D
in real seabeds with no bedforms,
ks = D75
in bedforms, characteristic bedform scale
ks ~ height of ripples

Notes on zo in HRF
Grain Roughness:
Nikuradze (1930s) - glued sand grains on pipe flow
zo = D/30
Kamphius (1974) - channel flow experiments
zo = D/15
Bedforms:
Wooding (1973)
where H is the ripple height
and is the ripple
wavelength
Suspended Sediment:
Smith (1977)
zo = f (excess shear stress, and zo from ripples)

Bed Roughness is never well known or characterized, but fortunately not necessary to determine u*
If you only have one velocity measurement (at a single elevation), use the formulations above.
If you can avoid it.. do so.
With multiple velocity measurements, use the “Law of the Wall” to get u*
