Detailed Description

This boundary condition provides a log-law type ground-normal inlet boundary condition for the turbulent kinetic energy (i.e. k) for homogeneous, two-dimensional, dry-air, equilibrium and neutral atmospheric boundary layer modelling.

The ground-normal k profile expression:

\[ k = \frac{(u^*)^2}{\sqrt{C_\mu}} \sqrt{C_1 \ln \left( \frac{z - d + z_0}{z_0} \right) + C_2} \]

where

\( k \) = Ground-normal turbulent kinetic energy profile [m^2/s^3]
\( u^* \) = Friction velocity [m/s]
\( C_\mu \) = Empirical model constant [-]
\( C_1 \) = Curve-fitting coefficient for YGCJ profiles [-]
\( C_2 \) = Curve-fitting coefficient for YGCJ profiles [-]

Required fields:

        k    | Turbulent kinetic energy                         [m2/s2]
Usage
Example of the boundary condition specification:
inlet
{
    // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
    type            atmBoundaryLayerInletK;

    // Mandatory/Optional (inherited) entries (unmodifiable)
    ...
    flowDir         (1 0 0);    // not used
    zDir            (0 0 1);    // not used
}
