Abstract

The work presents a comparison of numerical models of a far turbulent wake of a towed elongated body of revolution in a homogeneous fluid: model based on the direct numerical simulation, and two semi-empirical models involving the equation of the turbulence energy balance. Computational results demonstrate the self-similarity of the decay and agree with known experimental data.
