Lien cubic k-ε

Properties​

  • Incompressible only
  • Two-equation model

Model equations​

The turbulence kinetic energy equation is given by:

DDt(k)=∇ ∙ (Dk∇k)+G−ϵ \Ddt{k} = \div \left( D_k \grad k \right) + G - \epsilon

and the turbulence dissipation rate equation by:

DDt(ϵ)=∇ ∙ (Dϵ∇ϵ)+Cϵ1Gϵk−Cϵ2f2ϵ2k+E \Ddt{\epsilon} = \div \left( D_\epsilon \grad \epsilon \right) + C_{\epsilon 1} G \frac{\epsilon}{k} - C_{\epsilon 2} f_2 {\epsilon^2}{k} + E

Default model coefficients​

Usage​

The model is specified using:

RAS
