Turbulence dissipation rate
From CFD-Wiki
(Redirected from Turbulence dissipation)
Turbulence dissipation, is the rate at which turbulence kinetic energy is converted into thermal internal energy. The SI unit of is .
For compressible flows the definition is most often slightly different:
Where the viscous stress, , using Stokes law for mono-atomic gases, is given by:
