Performance of four turbulence closure models implemented using a generic length scale method

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-equation turbulence model (one equation for turbulence kinetic energy and a second for a generic turbulence length-scale quantity) is implemented in a three-dimensional oceanographic model (Regional Oceanographic Modeling System; ROMS v2.0).

Evaluation of Various Turbulence Models in Predicting Airflow and Turbulence in Enclosed Environments by CFD: Part 2—Comparison with Experimental Data from Literature

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the performance of eight turbulence models, potentially suitable for indoor airflow, in terms of accuracy and computing cost, including Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) modeling, hybrid RANS and largeeddy simulation (or detached-eddy simulation [DES]).

Turbulence Modeling Validation, Testing, and Development

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide accurate numerical solutions for selected flow fields and to compare and evaluate the performance of selected turbulence models with experimental results, including free shear flows, boundary layer flows, and axisymmetric shockwave/boundary layer interaction.

Development and application of a cubic eddy-viscosity model of turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, a cubic relation between the strain and vorticity tensor and the stress tensor was proposed, which does much better than a conventional eddy-viscosity scheme in capturing effects of streamline curvature over a range of flows.

Turbulence Modeling in Rotating and Curved Channels: Assessing the Spalart-Shur Correction

TL;DR: The Spalart-Allmaras (SA) one-equation turbulence model as mentioned in this paper was developed for aerodynamic flow simulations and was shown to be quite competitive with advanced nonlinear and Reynolds-stress models and to be much more accurate than the original SA model.

The prediction of laminarization with a two-equation model of turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the local turbulent viscosity is determined from the solution of transport equations for the turbulence kinetic energy and the energy dissipation rate, and the predicted hydrodynamic and heat-transfer development of the boundary layers is in close agreement with the measured behaviour.
Journal ArticleDOI

The calculation of low-Reynolds-number phenomena with a two-equation model of turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present numerical predictions of various turbulent shear flows in which the structure of the viscous sublayer exerts appreciable influence on the flow, where the turbulence energy and its dissipation rate are calculated by way of transport equations which are solved simultaneously with the conservation equations for the mean flow.

Heat and mass transfer from rotating cones

TL;DR: In this article, heat transfer by convection from isothermal rotating cones is investigated experimentally by measuring the sublimation rate from naphthalene-coated cones and using the analogy between heat and mass transfer.
