twoPhaseEulerFoam - k-epsilon

grjmell · September 8, 2011, 07:14

Hi,
I believe the k-epsilon model used in the twoPhaseEulerFoam solver is based on Gosman et al. (1992) as indicated in Rusche (2002) Phd Thesis. A look at the source code seems to confirm that although i find it hard to correlate the source code with equations in the references.
Can someone confirm that is correct?

Hi,

Did you manage to find it out?is it based on Gosman et al. (1992)?
