The steady recirculating flow behind a sudden expansion in a shallow channel is studied using the renormalization group (RNG) κ-ε model. The predicted recirculating flow and the reattachment length of the recirculating flow are well-supported by the reported experimental data. The computed effective viscosity, turbulence kinetic energy and its dissipation rate given by the RNG κ-ε model are smaller than that by the standard κ-ε model, while the reattachment length of the recirculating flow is larger. The RNG κ-ε medel overcomes the shortcoming of underpredicting the length of the recirculation zone by the standard κ-ε model.
