Out of curiosity, I tried to use the k-omega model on some basic test cases. The version implemented in OpenFOAM is the original Wilcox 1988 model. Impossible to get a solution!

Has someone...

If you have y+~1, you can resolve the full boundary layer, so that you don't need to use any wall function. :)

Simply put k=1e-9 and epsilon = 1e-9 at the wall and you should be good!

Please try and tell me if you get good results.
Personally, I did a low-Re simulation on a 2D airfoil using both models, and the results turned out to be far better with the LaunderSharmaKE model...

Did you try the low-Re k-epsilon model currently implemented in OpenFOAM (LaunderSharmaKE)?

Sure. I will.
However, one little question.
For all RAS models implemented in OF, the production term is defined by 2*nut*magsqr(symm(fvc::grad(U_)), which corresponds to P = tau_{ij} S_{ij}.

There as been lots of debate whether one should use the nutUSpaldingWallFunction or not for nut. Personally, I believe that there is no real point in having y+~1 with the current SST model. The wall...

The k-w SST model implemented in OpenFOAM (v2.2.0) seems to be the high-Re version. I am currently implementing the low-Re version. It should not take more than a couple of days I believe.
I'll...

I had a Courant number of 0.65 max.

I read some stuffs regarding the old channelFoam solver. It looks very similar to what the fvOptions file is doing.
I guess in the latest version of OpenFOAM,...

Hi Jonathan,

The DNS data I used were taken from

"Direct numerical simulation of turbulent channel flow up to Reτ = 590", R.D. Moser, J. Kim and N.N. Mansour, Phys. Fluids 11, 943 (1999)...

It seems that the initial conditions have a huge influence on the final solution.

I ran the exact same simulation, but using two different initial flow fields:

Hey again,

Pretty confusing. Has any of you already seen something like this in OpenFOAM? (see picture)

For this simulation, I used the BC suggested by Jonathan. It seems that the flow...

Hi everyone,

I am running pimpleFoam for that one.
Actually, I realized that something might have gone wrong during the simulations.
Jonathan, the curves are all shown in the previous graph,...

Hi everyone!

Really interesting topic! I am currently implementing an hybrid RANS / LES model into OpenFOAM, that would be based on the SST model.

I checked the implementation, and it seemed...
