[For parts I, II, see the foregoing entries.] We consider the modeling of all terms of exact transport equation for the dissipation rate tensor. The models for unknown correlations are based on the tensor symmetry properties and on the assumption that the anisotropy in the dissipation rate is relatively small. The starting point of this investigation is familiar approximations for the terms in dissipation rate equation. These approximations contain a system of empirical coefficients which must be determined. Basically, three methods may be employed to determine the empirical coefficients and the form of the modeled terms: the indirect method, the direct comparison of closure models with experimental data for the terms in exact equation, and a direct comparison with numerical simulation data. The terms in the exact equation for dissipation rate tensor cannot be measured, and therefore the information on these terms can be obtained from a direct numerical simulation (DNS) data only. The system of empirical coefficients has been determined based on the DNS data for a developed channel flow. Comparison with DNS data shows that the new model is better than the existing models.
