nutWallFunction

Description

The nutWallFunction is an abstract base class that hosts $y^+$ calculation methods and common functions for nut wall-function boundary conditions.

Usage

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

Boundary file

<patchName>
{
    type            wall;
    ...
}

Field file

<patchName>
{
    // Optional entries
    U               <word>;

    // Inherited entries
    ...
}

where:

Property	Description	Type	Required	Default
U	Name of velocity field	word	no	U

The inherited entries are elaborated in:

• fixedValueFvPatchField.H
• wallFunctionCoefficients.H
