TurbulenceModel

Selection of turbulence model

Select turbulence model to turn it on. Or do not provide any turbulence model to turn it off. So far, the k-epsilon and k-omega models are supported for turbulence. Supported turbulence models:
  • [empty]
    Do not provide any turbulence keyword to turn turbulence off.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon
    Use the k-epsilon model for turbulence, see KepsilonAlgorithm.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon:explicit
    Use the k-epsilon model for turbulence, however do the time integration explicitly.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon:BDF2
    Use the k-epsilon model for turbulence, however do the time integration explicitly.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon:RNG
    Use the RNG-k-epsilon model, see KepsilonAlgorithm.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon:RNG:explicit
    Use the RNG-k-epsilon model, however do the time integration explicitly.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon:RNG:BDF2
    Use the RNG-k-epsilon model, however do the time integration in BDF2-mode.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon:realizable
    Use the realizable k-epsilon model, see KepsilonAlgorithm.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon:realizable:explicit
    Use the realizable k-epsilon model, however do the time integration explicitly.
  • TURBULENCE:k-epsilon:realizable:BDF2
    Use the realizable k-epsilon model, however do the time integration in BDF2-mode.
  • TURBULENCE:k-omega:wilcox
    Use the standard Wilcox k-omega model after transformation of the omega equation into the epsilon scheme. Implicit Euler time integration. Also here, see KepsilonAlgorithm .
  • TURBULENCE:k-omega:wilcox:explicit
    Use the standard Wilcox k-omega model after transformation of the omega equation into the epsilon scheme. Explicit Euler time integration.
  • TURBULENCE:k-omega:wilcox:BDF2
    Use the standard Wilcox k-omega model after transformation of the omega equation into the epsilon scheme. BDF2 time integration.
  • TURBULENCE:k-omega:mentersst
    Use the Menter-SST k-omega model after transformation of the omega equation into the epsilon scheme. Implicit Euler time integration.
  • TURBULENCE:k-omega:mentersst:explicit
    Use the Menter-SST k-omega model after transformation of the omega equation into the epsilon scheme. Explicit Euler time integration.
  • TURBULENCE:k-omega:mentersst:BDF2
    Use the Menter-SST k-omega model after transformation of the omega equation into the epsilon scheme. BDF2 time integration.
