Hi,
I am trying to implement turbulence models in FLUENT using UDS/UDF. As a first step I tried with just implementing the Standard k-epsilon. However I cannot get it to work. In the first step I add two UDS variables and let them have the same diffusivites and sources as k and epsilon but I use the ordinary k and epsilon in the equations for UDS0 and UDS1. Then I patch UDS-0 and UDS-1 with k and epsilon respectively. What I would expect is that my UDS-0 and UDS-1 would keep like k and epsilon. Instead they quikly get very different and I even get negative values for UDS-1 (“epsilon”).
I would be very thankful if someone could have a look and see if I am missing something in my implementation.
