buoyancyTurbSource
 

Dear Foamers,

today I tested the new buoyancyTurbSource feature using the OF v2106 master branch.
However, using the hotRoom tutorial with the fvOptions file as below, the run crashed.
Without the fvOptions file it worked perfectly.

First of all, everything seems to be fine, but at timestep 58 the solver crashed.
Does anybody have an idea or experience with using buoyancyTurbSource?
