文摘A low Reynolds number k-ε model is used in the numeri cal study on a circular semi-confined turbulent impinging jet . The result is c ompared with that of the standard k-ε model and a refined k-ε mode l, which re-consi-dered the fluctuating pressure diffusion term in the dissipa tion rate equation (ε-equation) through modeling. It shows that the low Re ynolds number k-ε model and the standard k-ε model yield very poor performance, while the predicting ability of the refined k-ε model is mu ch improved , especially for the turbulent kinetic energy k. So it can be co ncluded that the poor performance of the standard k-ε model is owing to t he incorrect considering the effect of the fluctuating pressure diffusion term r ather than the use of the wall function near the wall just as presumed in the re ference.
