Hello.

Currently I am simulating flow over a cylinder. For that purpose I am using pimpleFoam solver. I am planning to use Spalart–Allmaras turbulence model.
I am using Dirichlet boundary condition. I am having a little difficulty in setting up the turbulence model boundary condition. I have used the formula
nutilda = root(1.5) * U * I * l

Here,
U = inflow velocity = 5.07, I = Turbulence intensity = 0.1% and l = turbulent length scale = 0.02
Now my settings of NuTilda looks like this:

Are my methods and boundary conditions ok?

Thank you.
