Detailed Description

template<class BasicTurbulenceModel>
class Foam::RASModels::SpalartAllmaras< BasicTurbulenceModel >

Spalart-Allmaras one-eqn mixing-length model for incompressible and compressible external flows.

Reference:

    Spalart, P.R., & Allmaras, S.R. (1994).
    A one-equation turbulence model for aerodynamic flows.
    La Recherche Aerospatiale, 1, 5-21.

The model is implemented without the trip-term and hence the ft2 term is not needed.

It is necessary to limit the Stilda generation term as the model generates unphysical results if this term becomes negative which occurs for complex flow. Several approaches have been proposed to limit Stilda but it is not clear which is the most appropriate. Here the limiter proposed by Spalart is implemented in which Stilda is clipped at Cs*Omega with the default value of Cs = 0.3.

The default model coefficients are

    SpalartAllmarasCoeffs
    {
        Cb1         0.1355;
        Cb2         0.622;
        Cw2         0.3;
        Cw3         2.0;
        Cv1         7.1;
        Cs          0.3;
        sigmaNut    0.66666;
        kappa       0.41;
    }
