A Galilean Invariant Explicit Algebraic Reynolds Stress Model for Curved Flows

By: Nasa, National Aeronautics and Space Adm

A Galilean invariant weak-equilbrium hypothesis that is sensitive to streamline curvature is proposed. The hypothesis leads to an algebraic Reynolds stress model for curved flows that is fully explicit and self-consistent. The model is tested in curved homogeneous shear flow: the agreement is excellent with Reynolds stress closure model and adequate with available experimental data.
