Launder Shima turbulent model

giovanni · July 25, 2007, 03:51

Hi all,

has anyone wrote the Launder-Shima turbulent model in OpenFOAM? I would like to test it and compare it with others in my square duct case, but I'm still not so good in programming C++.

Thanks in advance!
Greetings.

Yes, it's been there for ages. Be careful with the boundary conditions on the turbulence variables, I think you will need to set them by hand.

Hi Hrv,

thank you for your answer, but... where can I find it in OF 1.4? I've found a lot of models in turbulenceModels/incompressible folder, but not the one I search. It isn't in the turbulenceProperties too.
What I have to do to use it?

Thanks a lot for your recommendation!
