$\nu _t = C_{\mu} {{k^2 } \over \varepsilon }$

(1)

where: $C_{\mu} = 0.09$

$\nu _t = k^{{1 \over 2}} l$

(2)

$\nu _t(y) = {C_{\mu}}^{{1 \over 4}} l_m(y) k^{{1 \over 2}}(y)$

(3)

$l_m$ is the mixing length.

$k^{{1 \over 2}}(y) = {1 \over {C_{\mu}}^{{1 \over 4}}} u_\tau e^{\frac{-y}{A}}$

(4)

$u_\tau$ is the shear velocity and $A$ a model parameter.

$l_m(y) = \kappa \left( A - \left(A - y_0\right) e^{\frac{-(y-y_0)}{A}} \right)$

(5)

$\kappa = 0.4$ , $y_0$ is the hydrodynamic roughness

$\nu _t(y) = \kappa \left( A - \left(A - y_0\right) e^{\frac{-(y-y_0)}{A}} \right) u_\tau e^{\frac{-y}{A}}$

(6)

for a smooth wall ( $y_0 = 0$ ):

$\nu _t(y) = \kappa A \left( 1 - e^{\frac{-y}{A}} \right) u_\tau e^{\frac{-y}{A}}$
