The k-ε model focuses on the mechanism which affects ____________(a) the Reynolds stresses(b) the cross stresses(c) the transport of scalar fluxes(d) the turbulent kinetic energyI have been asked this question in an interview for internship.This is a very interesting question from Turbulence Modelling topic in portion Turbulence Modelling of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

Correct choice is (d) the turbulent kinetic energy

To explain I would say: The basic mixing length model cannot define a flow which involves flow SEPARATION or recirculation. So, a better turbulence model is developed in terms of k and ε. This model focuses on the DYNAMICS of the flow and HENCE its turbulent kinetic energy.
