shock77 is on a distinguished road
Hi everyone,


I am using rhoCentralFoam and would like to carry out a compressible supersonic and turbulent simulation.
I havent used k-omega-SST for a while and have to assign boundary conditions for alphat, which I am quite sure I had not to do before.

As far as I understood alphat is important for heat transer, but actualy I have adiabatic walls.

Can someone pls explain me what alphat does and why I have to define it?




Kind regards,
shock77
