Abstract
For practical users, the most interesting output of prediction codes for turbulent flows resides in first-, or at most second-moments. However, closure hypotheses in turbulence models are effected on second- or third-moments (depending on the closure level), on the dissipation and the pressure-strain terms. Consideration of higher-moment predictions is therefore crucial to assess turbulence models.
