How can I build a scalar scene for the Reynolds shear stress?I have to select some in the physics model?or something else?
In the field functions this stress doesn't appear!!! I am using k-epsilon model or k-omega model for the turbolence! Thanks to all! Lorenzo |

I think you have to write your own unless the RST model is activated. At least that's what I had to do.
here is what I had in 2D, it was supposed to give me a vector: RS[ii],RS[jj],RS[ij] but the last term [ij] is wrong as I wasn't sure how to get du/dy, or dv/dx (simply). I abandoned it as I had other more pressing things to work on. [ 2*$TurbulentViscosity*(grad(mag($$Velocity))[1])-(2/3)*$Density*$TurbulentKineticEnergy, 2*$TurbulentViscosity*(grad(mag($$Velocity))[2])-(2/3)*$Density*$TurbulentKineticEnergy, 2*$TurbulentViscosity*(grad(mag($$Velocity))[3])] it came from http://www.cfd-online.com/Wiki/Bouss...ity_assumption with StarCCM defining the strain rate tensor in eqn [306] (Search StarCCM Help) If you come up with an answer though it would be helpful. |

Can't you just multiply the velocity correlations, e.g., uu, by the density? The velocity correlations are directly extractable from CFX-Post.
