Gamma-Re Transition Model
open-in-new
<p>Gamma-Re (γ-Re) transition model is a two equation <a href="/facts/Mathematical_model/CGhyuxgz">model</a> used in <a href="/facts/Computational_Fluid_Dynamics/zuWdtNJp">Computational Fluid Dynamics</a> (CFD) to modify turbulent transport equations to simulate <a href="/facts/Laminar_flow/RFXN4eAC">laminar</a>, laminar-to-turbulent and turbulence states in a fluid flow. The Gamma-Re model does not intend to model the physics of the problem but attempts to fit a wide range of experiments and transition methods into its formulation. The transition model calculated an <a href="/facts/Intermittency/CEIrNsP0">intermittency</a> factor that creates (or <a href="/facts/Extinguish/Lh96vD2x">extinguishes</a>) turbulence by slowly introducing turbulent production at the laminar-to-turbulent transition location. </p> <p> </p>
