The present study addresses a new effort to improve the prediction of the thermal field in separating-reattaching flows by making modifications in a low-Reynolds-number (LRN) version of HOGGDH heat-flux model proposed by Suga and Abe (2000). The modifications are based on introducing non-equilibrium effects of hydrodynamic flow field in the heat-flux model. Using an analytical approach, we have implemented P/ε, ignored in the base version, to the modified version. To do so, the model structure was changed and a damping function which is more sensitive to non-equilibrium flow features is also applied to the model. The modified heat-flux formulation along with a second moment closure...
