HI FOAMers! How are you?

Could you please help me in this issue?

I am working a external incompressible turbulent flow around a rotating disc. My questions are:

- Wall functions can be used for rotating walls?

- If so, what are the correct values of yPlus for standard kepsilon and standard komega?

In pitzDaily tutorial is used standard kepsilon model, and it has this yPlus values for the latest time:
Code:
Patch 2 named upperWall y+ : min: 5.46758 max: 14.464 average: 10.055

Patch 3 named lowerWall y+ : min: 0.822923 max: 26.3104 average: 15.8846
Is this interval correct for my case?

Thank you very much in advance!
epsilon
eps
I am using wallfunctions: kqRwallfunction, omegawallfunction, nutkwallfunction and epsilonwallfunction

I always have though that standard k omega model requieres yPlus<1, but I am finding some posts that say other numbers...
