✦ Synopsis
A nonlinear stress±strain model, derived from the modeled Reynolds stress transport equation, is modi®ed to account for the near wall eects in wall-bounded turbulent ¯ows. Since it is known that wall re¯ection of the turbulent pressure ®eld modi®es the pressure±strain correlation, the approach taken is to introduce a correction to the coecients in the closure for the pressure±strain correlation purely based on ideas for full Reynolds stress closures. The stress±strain relation is implemented in the context of the k± model with a variable C l . Results are presented for plane channel ¯ow and both zero and adverse pressure gradient boundary layers. Favorable results for the anisotropies in the Reynolds stresses are obtained by the new model as validated by comparisons against direct numerical simulation (DNS) and experimental data.

The performance of Reynolds stress transport (RST) models in non-equilibrium ¯ows is limited by the lack of information about two dynamically important eects: the role of energy-containing turbulence structure (dimensionality) and the breaking of re¯ectional symmetry due to strong mean or frame rota
A new nonlinear near-wall turbulence model is developed on the basis of realizability constraints to predict turbulent flow and heat transfer in strongly nonequilibrium flows. The linear k-e-f l model of Park and Sung (Fluid Dyn. Res., 20 (1997) 97) is extended to a nonlinear formulation. The stress
Nonlinear eddy viscosity and algebraic stress models are currently providing an invaluable link between the more common linear eddy viscosity turbulence models and the full di!erential Reynolds stress forms. With the increased popularity has come an abundance of di!erent formulations. The purpose of
This paper presents an adaptive finite element method for solving incompressible turbulent flows using a k-e model of turbulence. Solutions are obtained in primitive variables using a highly accurate quadratic finite element on unstructured grids. A projection error estimator is presented that takes
