This paper presents a consistent theory of self-similarity and of equilibrium in the outer region of turbulent boundary layers that explains recent experimental findings on the subject; including new ones presented here. The theory is first presented in a general form where the outer scales are left unspecified and it is not assumed that the mean velocity defect and the Reynolds stresses share a common velocity scale. It is shown that the main results of the traditional similarity theory remain valid even in this case. Common outer scaling with the Zagarola-Smits length and velocity scales is then chosen. A new pressure gradient parameter is introduced to characterize the local effect of the pressure gradient in all flow conditions including strong adverse-pressure-gradient conditions. By analyzing several adverse-pressure- gradient flow cases; it is shown that self-similarity of the mean velocity defect profile is reached in all cases in localized but significant flow regions. The same is; however; not true of the Reynolds stress profiles. In agreement with the similarity analysis; the self-similar velocity defect profile is found to be a function of the pressure gradient and most flows studied here are only in an approximate state of equilibrium in the region of self-similar defect profiles despite the excellent collapse of the profiles.
