Abstract The momentum and turbulent kinetic energy equations are solved for a number of phenomenological closure approximations. The various methods are evaluated by comparison with several selected sets of experimental data. The empirical constants are determined such that the deviation between the experimental and theoretical values is minimized. The minimization process is carried out via a logical search algorithm which can also be applied to other problems in which the minimum or maximum value of a function of several variables is desired.
