Abstract :
In commercial computational fluid dynamics codes there is more than one turbulence model built in. It is the user responsibility to choose one of those models, suitable for the problem studied. In the last decade, several computations were presented using computational fluid dynamics for the simulation of various problems of the nuclear industry. A common feature in a number of those simulations is that they were performed using the standard k–ε turbulence model without justifying the choice of the model. The simulation results were rarely satisfactory. In this paper, we shall consider
