The yPlus
function object computes the near wall \(y_1^+\) for turbulence models.
Operand | Type | Location |
---|---|---|
input | - | - |
output file | dat | $FOAM_CASE/postProcessing/<FO>/<time>/<file> |
output field | volScalarField | $FOAM_CASE/<time>/<outField> |
Example of the yPlus
function object by using functions
sub-dictionary in system/controlDict
file:
yPlus1 { // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable) type yPlus; libs (fieldFunctionObjects); // Optional (inherited) entries writePrecision 8; writeToFile true; useUserTime true; region region0; enabled true; log true; timeStart 0; timeEnd 1000; executeControl timeStep; executeInterval 1; writeControl timeStep; writeInterval 1; }
where the entries mean:
Property | Description | Type | Required | Default |
---|---|---|---|---|
type | Type name: yPlus | word | yes | - |
libs | Library name: fieldFunctionObjects | word | yes | - |
The inherited entries are elaborated in:
Example by using the postProcess
utility:
<solver> -postProcess -func yPlus
