The time averaged, streamwise velocity component along the domain centerline ( , , ) comparing the SKE, RNGKE, and the SSTKW turbulence closure models with the experiments performed by Lyn et al. [15, 16]. The SSTKW model with near wall resolution, , resulted in the closest agreement with experiment.
