Reynolds stresses

• Performing the Reynolds Averaging Process, new terms has arisen, namely the Reynolds-stress tensor:

''infection, jiijij uu

• This brings us at the turbulent closure problem, the fact that we have more unknowns than equations.

– Three velocities + pressure + six Reynolds-stresses

– Three momentum equations + the continuity equation

• To close the problem, we need additional equations to solve infected flow.

• Derivations of Reynolds-stress conservation Equations

Derivation of Conservation Equations for Reynolds Stresses

• Introduces new unknowns (22 new unknowns)
