where:
One-equation eddy viscosity model

is the mixing length.
Algebraic model for the turbulent kinetic energy

is the shear velocity and 
a model parameter.
For steady open channel flows in local equilibrium, where the energy production is balanced by the dissipation, from the modeled -equation [Nezu and Nakagawa (1993)] obtained a similar semi-theoretical equation.
Algebraic model for the mixing length
For local equilibrium, an extension of von Kármán’s similarity hypothesis allows to write, with equation (4) [Absi (2006)]:

, 
is the hydrodynamic roughness.
For a smooth wall (
):
 | (6) |
the algebraic eddy viscosity model is therefore
 | (7) |
The mean velocity profile
In local equilibrium region, we are able to find the mean velocity 
profile from the mixing length and the turbulent kinetic energy by:
 | (8) |
With equations (4) and (5), we obtain [Absi (2006)]:
