Production/Dissipation Ratio

Hi everybody. Does anybody know what the ratio of production to dissipation looks like for adverse pressure gradient flows in the outer layer of a turbulent boundary layer? In a zero pressure gradient flow this asymptotes to 1, but for adverse pressure gradient the value is bigger. Any references? How does k-epsilon model predicted? Over or underpredictcs? I have some results which predict a higher ratio than standart k-epsilon. I need to verify this. Thanks in advance. John

(1). Prof. W. Rodi has published a paper many many years ago dealing with the adverse pressure gradient issue. (published in ASME?) (2). It's a short paper, but it has profile distribution vs his improved model. It's one of the early attempt to make the model more sensitive to the pressure gradient. (I think, the paper was published before mid-80's)

No doubt you can obtain info on this in David Wilcox's turbulence modelling book.
