In this thesis, a new turbulence model developed previously for channel and flat plate flows is evaluated for flat plate flows with pressure gradient. For this purpose a flow solver, which uses boundary layer equations as the governing equations and Von Karman momentum integral equation for the calculation of skin friction, is developed. It is shown that the error of the new turbulence model, in predicting the velocity profile, is less than 5 % for the flat plate flows without pressure gradient and less than 10 % for the flat plate flows with favorable pressure gradient. It is also shown that results with an error in the order of 20 % can be achieved for the flat plate flows with adverse pressure gradient.
