Hi,
I'l trying to perform a simultion of wind on an hospital, I use the turbinesiting tutorial with ABL conditions.
There is a thing I can't found : how is calculated the "TurbulentKE"? I look for informations and I found the folowing law :
TurbulentKE = 1.5 * (UI)^2
I = 0.16 Re ^-1/8
Re = U * L / nu
U= wind speed
L=charateristic lenght
nu= cinematic velocity
I can't see how to calculate TKE with such informations! Could smbdy help me please?

Hi,
After searchings, I decided not to change TKE because it's the best solution in my case.
