Eddy Viscosity Models

Eddy Viscosity Models is a class of turbulence closure models in fluid dynamics that belong to the broader category of Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) approaches, distinguished by their assumption that turbulent eddies enhance momentum diffusion analogous to molecular viscosity, thereby relating the Reynolds stress tensor to the mean strain rate through an empirically calibrated turbulent viscosity coefficient.
