Hello all
I am using pimpleFoam(LES) to simulate water jet. My mesh is good and it can resolve the jet, but I need to add synthetic turbulence in to nozzle jet since it is to strong and coherent without entrance turbulence. I am using OF2112, U(especially turbulentDFSEMInlet)and P boundary conditions as I put in below.
With 10% turbulence intensity, my jet is still very coherent and does not dissipate as I attached the jet figure to this thread. what should I do? Are mt Turbulence Intensity parameter defined logically?
Nozzle diameter = 0.005 m
Nozzle velocity = 0.64 m/s

Boundary conditions for Nozzle_Outlet (turbulentDFSEMInlet);

 Nozzle_Outlet
    {
    type            turbulentDFSEMInlet;
    delta           0.005; // 1*0.005; //Characteristic length scale	

    
     R    uniform (0.004096 0.0 0.0 0.004096 0.0 0.004096);     // 10%*0.64==>0.064=======>0.064^2=0.004096
        
     U               uniform (0.0 0.64 0.0);
     value	      uniform (0.0 0.64 0.0);
        
     L               uniform 0.001;   // 0.2*0.005=0.001

     nCellPerEddy    2;
		
    }

Boundary conditions for Velocity;

And for pressure, we have below boundary condition;
