    Description :
    _____________
                                                                                
 This procedure computes the effective (turbulent + molecular) viscosity
 obtained by the transient solution (one time step) of the K-epsilon
 model. The result is stored in the 'INCO' table at the entry MUF' for
 effective dynamic viscosity. For standard version (high Reynolds model)
 the Production/dissipation ratio is limited to 10 (proposed by Menter).
 Warning: when the aspect ratio of mesh cells is greater than 20, lack
 of convergence may occur.

 A type MOT coefficient indicates that the operator search for the coefficient
 in the INCO table referenced by the given MOT.

 The options of this procedure are taken in a LISTMOTS object referenced at
 'ALGO_KEPSILON' entry of rv procedure.
 ex : RV.'ALGO_KEPSILON'= MOTS 'Bw' 'Cnu';

 If this entry does'nt exist the default values are taken.

 The list of availlable options is: IMPR,RNG,Filtre,Bw,Cnu,Nut,Fi,
 M2M,CSTE,Ret,KL,KLbr,Chien,Sharma,Jones,Lam
 The default options are : Nut and the standard k - epsilon model

 IMPR: Print options

 RNG : RNG k - epsilon model

 Filtre : Filtered K-epsilon model. The length scale is filtered
          by a value given in RV.'INCO'.'Echl'. This model allows to
          better capture instationarities or large scale instabilities
          (greater than the size filter). The size of the filter can be
          taken to the size of a mesh element.

 Bw  : A realisability condition is imposed on the maximum turbulent
       shear stresses.  (u'v')/k < 0.3   (Bradshaw)
       DEFAULT = FAUX

 Cnu : The so called Cnu 'constant' is related to the equilibrium 
       coefficient  Ksi=(Nut P)/epsilon : Cnu = F(1./Ksi) (See Rodi)
       For Ksi = 1 Cnu=0.09.
       DEFAULT = FAUX

 Nut : The intermediate variables used are Teta and Nut
       DEFAULT = VRAI

 Fi  : The intermediate variables used are Teta and Fi
       DEFAULT = FAUX

 M2M : Constantes of Mohammadi and Medic.
       DEFAUT = FAUX.

 CSTE: The constants of the model are taken in the INCO table at entries
       'cnu' 'c2' 'sgk' 'sge' and c1 constant being deduced.
       DEFAUT = FAUX.

 KL  : K-L model. The turbulence length scale has to be specified 'Echl'
       entry in 'INCO' table (FLOTTANT or CHPOINT SCAL SOMMET).
       Numerically this model is obtained replacing the PDE for epsilon
       by epsilon = k**1.5 / L. The inputs have to be completed like
       the K-epsilon model. In particular it is necessary to specify
       the epsilon unknown and the boundary conditions on espilon must
       verify the above relationship with the length scale.

 KLbr: Low-Reynols K-L model. It is the model proposed by Wolfshtein
       (1967) and Yap (1987). Instead of lengthscale we have to specify
       the distance to the walls: 'dparoi' entry (CHPOINT SCAL SOMMET)
       in 'INCO' table. The boundary conditions at the wall are U=0,K=0
       and Epsilon=0. The first cell must be in the viscous sublayer
       (y+ < 1).

 Chien: Low-Reynolds k-epsilon model of Chien. This model
       requires the distance to the wall for each grid point:
       entry 'INCO'.'dparoi' (same support as k or epsilon), and
       the computation of y+ (entry 'INCO' 'yplus'). This last entry
       needs to be computed at each time step via a procedure.
       The boundary conditions and the mesh requirement are the same
       as previous.
       See as example canal-Chien.dgibi

 Sharma: Low-Reynolds k-epsilon model of Launder and Sharma. This model
       does'nt require any additional information which is a certain
       advantage. The boundary conditions and the mesh requirement are
       the same as previous.
       See as example canal-Sharma.dgibi

 Jones: Low-Reynolds k-epsilon model of Jones and Launder. This model
       is almost the same as Launder-Sharma except the values of the
       constants.

 Lam:   Low-Reynolds k-epsilon model of Lam and Bremhorst. (in test)

*-------------------------- in progress --------------------------------
 Chien: Low-Reynolds k-epsilon model of Chien. This model
       requires the distance to the wall for each grid point:
       entry 'INCO'.'Yparoi' (same support as k or epsilon).
*-------------------------- in progress --------------------------------
