As the result of the TKE-ε equation Km (via Ke and directly) is used as input data for the next calculation cycle, there is a non-linear feedback loop between the turbulent exchange coefficient and the TKE-ε equation. Once Km begins to be unstable, the TKE-ε equation system will get unstable too, producing even more unstable Km's in the next loop.\\ | As the result of the TKE-ε equation Km (via Ke and directly) is used as input data for the next calculation cycle, there is a non-linear feedback loop between the turbulent exchange coefficient and the TKE-ε equation.
