Incompressible RSM turbulence thermal transport Can OpenFOAM do this -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

I'm choosing a package to use at work, but am unsure whether OpenFOAM is able to solve the case I need. Specifically, I have a bluff body, Re = 33k. With Fluent, I found best results using an RSM turbulence model, so hope to use it here. An added complication now, is thermal effects. I want to simulate the heat transfer from the flow into the body, and from the body into the flow, at the same time as the turbulence calculations. The temperature distribution throughout the body is also required. Is this possible? Best regards, Mark.
