Guidelines
Domain size must be ATLEAST 2000y+ in streamwise direction and 400y+ in the spanwise direction
In boundary layer, y+=1 and min. 3 layers of BL between y+ > 1 and < 10. z+ <=15. x+=O(50).
In the inner layer of the BL, the typical correlation lengths are 1000y+ in streamwise and 100y+ in sp
(x+,y+,z+)=(x/Lt,y/Lt,z/Lt); Lt=nu/Utau
