Class Foam::nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField Group grpWallFunctions Description This boundary condition provides a wall constraint on the turbulent viscosity, i.e. \c nut, based on velocity, i.e. \c U. Using Spalding's law gives a continuous \c nut profile to the wall. \f[ y^+ = u^+ + \frac{1}{E} \left[exp(\kappa u^+) - 1 - \kappa u^+\, - 0.5 (\kappa u^+)^2 - \frac{1}{6} (\kappa u^+)^3\right] \f] where \vartable y^+ | Non-dimensional position u^+ | Non-dimensional velocity \kappa | von Kármán constant \endvartable Usage Example of the boundary condition specification: \verbatim { // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable) type nutUSpaldingWallFunction; // Optional entries (unmodifiable) maxIter 10; tolerance 0.0001; // Optional (inherited) entries ... } \endverbatim where the entries mean: \table Property | Description | Type | Req'd | Dflt type | Type name: nutUBlendedWallFunction | word | yes | - maxIter | Number of Newton-Raphson iterations | label | no | 10 tolerance | Convergence tolerance | scalar | no | 0.0001 \endtable The inherited entries are elaborated in: - \link nutWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField.H \endlink Note - Suffers from non-exact restart since \c correctNut() (called through \c turbulence->validate) returns a slightly different value every time it is called. This is since the seed for the Newton-Raphson iteration uses the current value of \c *this (\c =nut ). - This can be avoided by overriding the tolerance. This also switches on a pre-detection whether the current nut already satisfies the turbulence conditions and if so does not change it at all. This means that the nut only changes if it 'has really changed'. This probably should be used with a tight tolerance, to make sure to kick every iteration, e.g. maxIter 100; tolerance 1e-7; SourceFiles nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField.C \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ #ifndef nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField_H #define nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField_H #include "nutWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField.H" // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // namespace Foam { /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ Class nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField Declaration \*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/ class nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField : public nutWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField { protected: // Protected Data //- Max iterations in calcNut const label maxIter_; //- Convergence tolerance const scalar tolerance_; //- Uncomment in case of intrumentation //mutable uint64_t invocations_; //mutable uint64_t nontrivial_; //mutable uint64_t nonconvergence_; //mutable uint64_t iterations_; // Protected Member Functions //- Calculate the turbulent viscosity virtual tmp calcNut() const; //- Calculate the friction velocity virtual tmp calcUTau(const scalarField& magGradU) const; //- Calculate the friction velocity and number of iterations for //- convergence virtual tmp calcUTau ( const scalarField& magGradU, const label maxIter, scalarField& err ) const; //- Write local wall function variables virtual void writeLocalEntries(Ostream&) const; public: //- Runtime type information TypeName("nutUSpaldingWallFunction"); // Constructors //- Construct from patch and internal field nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField ( const fvPatch&, const DimensionedField& ); //- Construct from patch, internal field and dictionary nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField ( const fvPatch&, const DimensionedField&, const dictionary& ); //- Construct by mapping given //- nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField //- onto a new patch nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField ( const nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField&, const fvPatch&, const DimensionedField&, const fvPatchFieldMapper& ); //- Construct as copy nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField ( const nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField& ); //- Construct and return a clone virtual tmp clone() const { return tmp ( new nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField(*this) ); } //- Construct as copy setting internal field reference nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField ( const nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField&, const DimensionedField& ); //- Construct and return a clone setting internal field reference virtual tmp clone ( const DimensionedField& iF ) const { return tmp ( new nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField(*this, iF) ); } //- Destructor virtual ~nutUSpaldingWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField(); // Member Functions // Evaluation functions //- Calculate and return the yPlus at the boundary virtual tmp yPlus() const; // I-O //- Write virtual void write(Ostream& os) const; }; // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // } // End namespace Foam // * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * // #endif // ************************************************************************* //
