A comprehensive and critical review of closure approximations for two-equation turbulence models has been made. Particular attention has focused nn the Scale-Determining Equation in an attempt to find the optimum choice of dependent variable and closure approxlmations. Using a comblnation of singular perturbation methods and numerical computatlons, this paper demonstrates that conventional k -f and k_w2 formulations generally are inaccurate fur boundary layers in adverse pressure gradient.
