    turbulence models get thermal dissipation source term(s) · 7cbcc02d

    - thermalDissipation()
      corresponds to the energy lost due to viscous efffects and
      what exits the energy cascade via dissipation.
    
    - thermalDissipationEff()
      corresponds to the energy lost due to effective viscous efffects.
      Everything that is lost from momentum. Thus essentially assumes
      turbulent equilibrium, but is what STAR-CD and Fluent seem to be using.
      Thus even if it's wrong, provide it anyhow.
