Abstract
Large-scale motions of fully developed turbulent channel flow were numerically investigated for the Re τ of up to 1180 using LES. They were found to be similar to the streak structures near the wall, but their streamwise and spanwise sizes reach about three times and twice as large as the channel-half width respectively independent of the Re τ.
