Kinematic Eddy Viscosity

$\nu _T = {k \over \omega }$

Turbulence Kinetic Energy

${{\partial k} \over {\partial t}} + U_j {{\partial k} \over {\partial x_j }} = \tau _{ij} {{\partial U_i } \over {\partial x_j }} - \beta ^* k\omega + {\partial \over {\partial x_j }}\left[ {\left( {\nu + \sigma ^* \nu _T } \right){{\partial k} \over {\partial x_j }}} \right]$

Specific Dissipation Rate

${{\partial \omega } \over {\partial t}} + U_j {{\partial \omega } \over {\partial x_j }} = \alpha {\omega \over k}\tau _{ij} {{\partial U_i } \over {\partial x_j }} - \beta \omega ^2 + {\partial \over {\partial x_j }}\left[ {\left( {\nu + \sigma \nu _T } \right){{\partial \omega } \over {\partial x_j }}} \right]$

Closure Coefficients and Auxilary Relations

$\alpha = {{13} \over {25}}$

$\beta = \beta _0 f_\beta$

$\beta ^* = \beta _0^* f_{\beta ^* }$

$\sigma = {1 \over 2}$

$\sigma ^* = {1 \over 2}$

$\beta _0 = {9 \over {125}}$

$f_\beta = {{1 + 70\chi _\omega } \over {1 + 80\chi _\omega }}$

$\chi _\omega = \left| {{{\Omega _{ij} \Omega _{jk} S_{ki} } \over {\left( {\beta _0^* \omega } \right)^3 }}} \right|$

$\beta _0^* = {9 \over {100}}$

$f_{\beta ^* } = \left\{ \begin{matrix} {1,} & {\chi _k \le 0} \\ {{{1 + 680\chi _k^2 } \over {1 + 80\chi _k^2 }},} & {\chi _k > 0} \\ \end{matrix} \right.$
