Abstract
An elliptic relaxation model is proposed for the strongly inhomogeneous region near the wall in wall-bounded turbulent shear flow. This model enables the correct kinematic boundary condition to be imposed on the normal component of turbulent intensity. Hence, wall blocking is represented. Means for enforcing the correct boundary conditions on the other components of intensity and on the k — ɛ equations are discussed. The present model agrees quite well with direct numerical simulation (DNS) data. The virtue of the present approach is that arbitrary “damping functions” are not required.
