Detailed Description

This boundary condition provides a turbulent thermal diffusivity condition when using wall functions, for use with surface film models. This condition varies from the standard wall function by taking into account any mass released from the film model.

Usage
Example of the boundary condition specification:
<patchName>
{
    // Mandatory entries
    type            alphatFilmWallFunction;

    // Optional entries
    filmRegion      <word>;
    B               <scalar>;
    yPlusCrit       <scalar>;
    Cmu             <scalar>;
    kappa           <scalar>;
    Prt             <scalar>;

    // Inherited entries
    ...
}

where the entries mean:

Property Description Type Reqd Deflt
type Type name: alphatFilmWallFunction word yes -
filmRegion Name of film region word no surfaceFilmProperties
B Model coefficient scalar no 5.5
yPlusCrit Critical y+ for transition to turbulence scalar no 11.5
Cmu Empirical model coefficient scalar no 0.09
Prt Turbulent Prandtl number scalar no 0.85
kappa von Karman constant scalar no 0.41
