Goutam is on a distinguished road
I am working on tube flow with L = 1000 mm, D = 19 mm and tube thickness = 0.5 mm. I am using SST k-w model.

Now I want to use Wall Roughness case. There are two input needed. These are

1. Roughness height
2. Roughness constant.

I set Roughness constant = 0.5. It means uniform roughness along the tube.

But what is called Roughness height? How to calculate this?

Any suggestions pls?
