“…Therefore, it is important to use a turbulence model that accounts for the anisotropy e ects, especially near the wall. The simplest model that accounts for the turbulence anisotropy is the v2f model introduced by Durbin [24], which solves three transport equations for turbulence kinetic energy, k, turbulence dissipation, ", and variance of uctuation velocity normal to the wall, v 0 2 , and an elliptic equation for the relaxation function, f. Following Majlesara et al [9], the turbulence kinetic energy, k, and the wall-normal stress, v 0 2 , are used for simulating the instantaneous turbulent velocity eld.…”
