We perform three dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of the ram pressurestripping of the hot extended gaseous halo of a massive galaxy using thek-epsilon sub-grid turbulence model at Mach numbers 0.9, 1.1 and 1.9. Thek-epsilon model is used to simulate high Reynolds number flows by increasingthe transport coefficients in regions of high turbulence. We find that theinitial, instantaneous stripping is the same whether or not the k-epsilon modelis implemented and is in agreement with the results of other studies. Howeverthe use of the k-epsilon model leads to five times less gas remaining afterstripping by a supersonic flow has proceeded for 10 Gyr, which is moreconsistent with what simple analytic calculations indicate. Hence the continualKelvin-Helmholtz stripping plays a significant role in the ram pressurestripping of the haloes of massive galaxies. To properly account for this,simulations of galaxy clusters will require the use of sub-grid turbulencemodels
