Rather than finding e, the k-(o model solves the transport equation for the specific dissipation rate, o, described as a frequency characteristic of the turbulent decay process under its self-interaction or, alternatively, can be thought of as the ratio of e to (Wilcox, 1998). The k-(0 model predicts free shear flow spreading rates that are in close agreement with measurements for far wakes, mixing layers, and plane, round, and radial jets, and is thus applicable to wall-bounded flows and free shear flows (ANSYS, 2010). The k-(D model has not been used to model MBR systems so far.
