Detailed Description

This boundary condition provides a wall constraint on the turbulent kinematic viscosity, i.e. nut, when using wall functions for rough walls, based on velocity, U.

Usage
Property Description Required Default value
roughnessHeight Roughness height yes
roughnessConstant Roughness constanr yes
roughnessFactor Scaling factor yes
Cmu Model coefficient no 0.09
kappa Von Karman constant no 0.41
E Model coefficient no 9.8
maxIter Number of Newton-Raphson iterations no 10
tolerance Convergence tolerance no 0.0001

Example of the boundary condition specification:

    <patchName>
    {
        // Mandatory entries
        type            nutURoughWallFunction;
        roughnessHeight     1e-5;
        roughnessConstant   0.5;
        roughnessFactor     1;

        // Optional entries
    }
Note
Suffers from non-exact restart since correctNut() (called through turbulence->validate) returns a slightly different value every time it is called. See nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField.C. Can be avoided by seeding the NR with e.g. the laminar viscosity or tightening the convergence tolerance to e.g. 1e-7 and the max number of iterations to 100.
