A two-equation turbulence model and its application to a buoyant diffusion flame
A modified k–ε two-equation turbulence model was developed to improve the consideration of the important buoyancy effect on turbulence and turbulent transport, which is a serious deficiency of the standard buoyancy-modified k–ε model. The present model was tested against both plane and axisymmetric thermal plumes and a buoyant diffusion flame. The model was found to be stable, computationally econ
