We study the semi-empirical b—ε model which describes the time evolution of turbulent spots in the case of equal diffusivity of the turbulent energy density b and the energy dissipation rate ε. We prove that the system of two partial differential equations possesses a solution, and that after some time this solution exhibits self-similar behaviour, provided that the system has self-similar solutions. The existence of such self-similar solutions depends upon the value of a parameter of the model.
