 Effective Viscosity

The sum of the laminar and turbulent viscosities, .

   

 Turbulent Viscosity Ratio

The ratio of turbulent to laminar viscosity, .

   

 Wall Y+

The value where is the reference velocity computed according to the selected wall treatment (see Understanding the Reynolds Stress Wall Treatment ), is the normal distance from the centroid to the wall in wall-adjacent cells and is the kinematic viscosity.
