Review text

This contribution presents a detailed review of mathematical models used for the description of turbulent shear flows. First, the author discusses the averaging in turbulent flows and, as applications, derives Reynolds equations and the rate equation for mean scalar transport. The second-moment equations, their closure and simplifications are the subjects of the next large topic. Here the author examines the dissipative correlations, non-dispersive pressure interactions, the role of main-strain contributions, the isotropization-of-production model, the wall effects, and finally the algebraic second-moment closure and the eddy viscosity model. A discussion of low-Reynolds-number near-wall turbulence models concludes the paper. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0898.00021].
