Hello everyone, I have a question about the solver and turbulence model. Are there any criteria that a certain solver is specially designed for a particular turbulence model.
The problem rises when I read through the user guide: http://cfd.direct/openfoam/user-guid...x13-940003.5.2 For instance, icoFoam is a Quote:
In addition, pisoFoam is a Quote:

In contrast, is that true where simpleFoam has to be used with RAS turbulence model in order to obtain steady-state solution? |

Best way to find out is by looking at the UEqn.H File in the solver source code. If it contains the term "turbulence->divREff", then turbulence Models can be used including laminar.
