sst turbulence model with OpenFoam

HerveAllain · September 28, 2010, 04:48

Hello,

I would like to use the SST turbulence model with openFoam for a incompressible flow in a pipe with a special geometry. The problem is that I don`t know which boundaries condition I must use for the inlet, outlet and wall in the 0/omega and 0/alphat files. I did not find information related to that.

Is somebody can help me with that?

Thank you in advance.

Did you really search in the forum? There are a lot of threads dealing with this issue....

Looks like you are a bit confused. You need 0/k, 0/omega and 0/nut files. Have a look, for example, at the tutorial motorBike of simpleFoam in your installation directory.
