Description🔗

The incompressible::alphatJayatillekeWallFunction is boundary condition that provides a kinematic turbulent thermal conductivity for using wall functions, using the Jayatilleke ‘P’ function.

Usage🔗

The condition requires entries in both the boundary and field files.

Boundary file🔗

<patchName>
{
    type            wall;
    ...
}

Field file🔗

<patchName>
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type            alphatJayatillekeWallFunction;
    Prt             <scalar>;

    // Optional entries
    kappa           <scalar>;
    E               <scalar>;

    // Inherited entries
    ...
}
