K-omega SST Wall functions

I have noticed when selecting K-omega SST as a turbulence model that there is no option to select wall functions whereas when selecting K-epsilon there is? Is this because there is no wall functions used in K-omega SST or just because Ansys doesn't allow the use of them for this model? Additionally, what should the Y+ range be for K-omega SST, is there are no wall functions then it should be 1-5, is that correct?
Thanks in advance |

There's only one wall function for the omega equation so there are no options. You get what you get. This wall function is rather crappy though because...
k-w (SST or not) is meant to be integrated all the way to the wall and yes you should be using it for low y+. If you are using a super high y+ grid, then go with regular k-epsilon. |

i used the SST K Omega model to solve my simulation i obtained eddy viscosity but i need the molecular viscosity. how i can do this conversion from eddy viscosity to molecular viscosity
thanks |

Don't hijack other people's threads for a different discussion! There is no conversion. They are unrelated. Eddy viscosity is a flow property related to turbulence. Molecular viscosity is a material property which is readily available. If you got the eddy viscosity you can also find the molecular viscosity. |

Thank you LuckyTran For your answers.
But how i can reach the molecular viscosity? |

How did you get to eddy viscosity?
If you're in the GUI and trying to make a contour or monitor or anything, molecular viscosity is grouped in properties. |

To have the eddy viscosity i run the simulation and go in the part result of ansys fluent and choice calculation --> areaAve --> Eddy viscosity --> Apply.
I didn't habe the molecular viscosity a Variable(result)to choice So i though that i can take the Eddy viscosity and convert it. Did you have any possibility ? PLEASE |

I don't know what to tell you except it's right there. It's not magic.
Maybe you can explain what you are (not) doing. |

after initialisation i have this error
"Error: domain-var-value: undefined variable Error Object: pb/sg-pb-dqmom?" what is it mean please |

Make your own thread! This is no longer a discussion of k-w SST nor wall functions. I am not answering any more of your queries in this thread unless it's related to one of those two topics. You keep coming up with new problems.
