eddy viscosity model

    0.01 sec.
eddy viscosity model [′ed·ē vi′skäs·əd·ē ‚mäd·əl]
(fluid mechanics)
A model of the Reynolds stresses in turbulent flow which is based on the idea that turbulent mixing, analogous to molecular mixing, is governed by an effective viscosity (the eddy viscosity) which is not a property of the fluid but a consequence of the local state of turbulence.
