Rotation/ Curvature correction for eddy-viscosity turbulence models

Dear Foamers,

for older OF versions - older than 3.0.0 and approx. 1606+ - several examples exist which help users to modify turbulence models, i.e. adding a curvature correction term. As the turbulence model implementation got a new facelift, this became much more difficult. Little help exists, e.g. highly appreciated hints like from Chalmers -->> https://pingpong.chalmers.se/public/pp/public_courses/course08331/published/1507799955754/resourceId/4037154/content/41433022-b456-4cd1-b467-4f7ef688841e/e36b265f-f3f7-4199-a981-d8c7d3928653.html?language=en <<-- but this is often not enough information to obtain the desired model variants.

Would it be possible to provide a little help concerning turbulence model variants? This would really increase the scope of Foam compared to commercial software where several model variants can usually be chosen.

-> Add common rotation/ curvature correction models to the standard choice, like from here
-->> https://turbmodels.larc.nasa.gov/sst.html <<--

-> Provide a new tutorial.

Best regards, Dag
