hmtoggle_plus1Comments
1.If

Where, Sij is the deviatoric stress tensor and eij is the deviatoric strain tensor.

If the element is connected to a boundary condition, a turbulent boundary layer model is used:

Where, κ is the turbulent kinetic energy.

If the ratio between the laminar and the turbulent Prantl numbers is higher than Pr / Prt, then:

For laminar flow:

For turbulent flow:

Where, E1 is the turbulent dissipation and it is calculated using the following equations:

With,

(turbulent viscosity)

Where, is the material velocity and w is the grid velocity.

2.In case of a perfect gas:

and

with symbol_y being the perfect gas constant.

3.In case of an incompressible gas:

  and

with c being the sound velocity.

4.In case of a linear material with a volumetric dilatation:

and

and

then:

If P = cst = 0,  then

so

Where, symbol_u is the dilatation coefficient, symbol_u < 0 means dilatation, and in this case, the parameters C2 and C3 will not be taken into account.

5.If using Law 6 coupled with Law 37 for liquid phase (without gas phase), the compatibility of the liquid EOS is as follows:
 for Law 37
law6_eq for Law 6

with

then,

6.If using Law 6 coupled with Law 37 for gas phase (without liquid phase), the compatibility of the gas EOS is as follows:

for Law 37

for Law 6

with and

then,

Where, E is the energy per unit volume and e is the energy per unit mass.

7.All thermal data () can be defined with keyword /HEAT.
