Equating the two expressions for eddy viscosity gives directlyFrom the preceding part, . Replace one factor of using that identity, and then replace itself by . This proves all three equivalent dissipation expressions:Each is the same turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate, with dimensions of velocity cubed divided by length. Its equivalent friction-velocity form is .
