Dear Foamers,

The buoyantBousinessqPimpleFoam solver uses the following equation for turbulent diffusion coefficient based on Standard Gradient Diffusion Hypothesis (SGDH):

alpha_t = \nu_t / Pr_t

I'm going to modify this equation based on Generalized Gradient Diffusion Hypothesis (GGDH) as follows:

alpha_t =-\frac{3}{2}\frac{C_\mu}{Pr_t}\overline{u'u'}

The problem is that I don't know how i can access to \overline{u'u'}. I tried
Code:
turbulence->R()
but it didn't work. It would be appreciated if someone help me to solve this problem.
