Description

A single-phase, isothermal low-Reynolds k-epsilon model.

Single-phase Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes flow For a detailed model description see freeflow/rans/model.hh.

The low-Reynolds k-epsilon models calculate the eddy viscosity with two additional PDEs, one for the turbulent kinetic energy (k) and for the dissipation ( \( \varepsilon \)). The model uses the one proposed by Chien [13]. A good overview and additional models are given in Patel et al. [51].

The turbulent kinetic energy balance is identical with the one from the k-epsilon model, but the dissipation includes a dampening function ( \( D_\varepsilon \)): \( \varepsilon = \tilde{\varepsilon} + D_\varepsilon \):

\[ \frac{\partial \left( \varrho k \right)}{\partial t} + \nabla \cdot \left( \textbf{v} \varhho k \right) - \nabla \cdot \left( \left( \mu + \frac{\mu_\text{t}}{\sigma_\text{k}} \right) \nabla k \right) - 2 \mu_\text{t} \textbf{S} \cdot \textbf{S} + \varrho \tilde{\varepsilon} + D_\varepsilon \varrho = 0 \]

.

The dissipation balance is changed by introducing additional functions ( \( E_\text{k}\), \( f_1 \), and \( f_2 \)) to account for a dampening towards the wall:

\[ \frac{\partial \left( \varrho \tilde{\varepsilon} \right)}{\partial t} + \nabla \cdot \left( \textbf{v} \varrho \tilde{\varepsilon} \right) - \nabla \cdot \left( \left( \mu + \frac{\mu_\text{t}}{\sigma_{\varepsilon}} \right) \nabla \tilde{\varepsilon} \right) - C_{1\tilde{\varepsilon}} f_1 \frac{\tilde{\varepsilon}}{k} 2 \mu_\text{t} \textbf{S} \cdot \textbf{S} + C_{2\tilde{\varepsilon}} \varrho f_2 \frac{\tilde{\varepsilon}^2}{k} - E_\text{k} \varrho = 0 \]

.

The kinematic eddy viscosity \( \nu_\text{t} \) is dampened by \( f_\mu \):

\[ \mu_\text{t} = \varrho C_\mu f_\mu \frac{k^2}{\tilde{\varepsilon}} \]

.

The auxiliary and dampening functions are defined as:

\[ D_\varepsilon = 2 \nu \frac{k}{y^2} \]

\[ E_\text{k} = -2 \nu \frac{\tilde{\varepsilon}}{y^2} \exp \left( -0.5 y^+ \right) \]

\[ f_1 = 1 \]

\[ f_2 = 1 - 0.22 \exp \left( - \left( \frac{\mathit{Re}_\text{t}}{6} \right)^2 \right) \]

\[ f_\mu = 1 - \exp \left( -0.0115 y^+ \right) \]

\[ \mathit{Re}_\text{t} = \frac{k^2}{\nu \tilde{\varepsilon}} \]

.

Finally, the model is closed with the following constants:

\[ \sigma_\text{k} = 1.00 \]

\[ \sigma_\varepsilon =1.30 \]

\[ C_{1\tilde{\varepsilon}} = 1.35 \]

\[ C_{2\tilde{\varepsilon}} = 1.80 \]

\[ C_\mu = 0.09 \]
