## Turbulence
The
`omegaWallFunction`
was updated to replicate v1606+ behaviour via the blended keyword. For more information, see commit ef0361f7
## Heat transfer
The
`nMoles`
entry is no longer required in the
`thermophysicalProperties`
dictionary
Heat flux field names have been updated to use a lower case
`q`
, e.g. radiative heat flux field name
`Qr`
to
`qr`
The
`externalWallHeatFluxTemperature`
boundary condition now requires a
`mode`
entry to state the mode of operation
## Function objects
ALL: the
`evaluateControl`
entry was renamed
`executeControl`
`runTimePostProcessing`
: camera input changed (bug fix to the
`clipBox`
entry)

dictionary were updated:
*

*
`inputFiles`

`files`
*
`inputFile`
entry renamed to
`file`
