T&R Bulletin R-44: Evaluation of Turbulence Models Against Complex Turbulence Data (1992)

Determination of the flow field around a surface ship or a submersible plays a significant role in modern design methodology. During the last two decades, a great deal of developmental effort has been spent to improve modeling and computation of turbulent flows. These included extensive detailed experimentation, conceptual model development efforts, and derivation of accurate and efficient numerical schemes.
