atmBoundaryLayerInletOmega
boundary condition provides a generalised log-law type ground-normal inlet boundary condition for the specific dissipation rate, i.e. omega
, for homogeneous, two-dimensional, dry-air, equilibrium and neutral atmospheric boundary layer modelling.atmBoundaryLayerInletOmega
boundary condition inherits the traits of the atmBoundaryLayer, and inletOutlet.The ground-normal specific dissipation rate profile expression, i.e. omega
([98], Eq. 13):
\[ \omega = \frac{u^*}{\kappa \sqrt{C_\mu}} \frac{1}{z - d + z_0} \]
where
\( \omega \) | = | Ground-normal specific dissipation rate profile [1/s] |
\( u^* \) | = | Friction velocity [m/s] |
\( \kappa \) | = | von Kármán constant [-] |
\( C_\mu \) | = | Empirical model constant [-] |
\( z \) | = | Ground-normal coordinate component [m] |
\( d \) | = | Ground-normal displacement height [m] |
\( z_0 \) | = | Aerodynamic roughness length [m] |
Example of the boundary condition specification:
inlet { // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable) type atmBoundaryLayerInletOmega; // Mandatory (inherited) entries (runtime modifiable) flowDir (1 0 0); zDir (0 0 1); Uref 10.0; Zref 0.0; z0 uniform 0.1; d uniform 0.0; // Optional (inherited) entries (unmodifiable) kappa 0.41; Cmu 0.09; initABL true; phi phi; C1 0.0; C2 1.0; // Conditional mandatory (inherited) entries (runtime modifiable) value uniform 0; // when initABL=false }
where the entries mean:
Property | Description | Type | Required | Default |
