Algebraic RANS closure for the low Mach path #263

Closed trevilo closed 6 months ago

trevilo commented 6 months ago

This PR implements the simplest possible algebraic eddy viscosity model in the structure of the low Mach path (i.e., as a class called AlgebraicRans that derives from TurbModelBase).

The PR also includes minor bug fixes in Tomboulides to ensure that the correct viscosity (i.e., the combination of the fluid viscosity, the eddy viscosity, and the sponge) is used in the variable viscosity terms.
