profile1DfixedValue Boundary Condition

The boundary condition profile1DfixedValue implements a cylindrical boundary condition field defined by a 1D fixed value profile (radial or vertical) for a typical RANS k-epsilon computation (eg. simpleFoam, turbFoam, etc).

The profile data is read from a separate CSV (Comma Separated Value) file similar to files generated by Ansys CFX.

This boundary condition is available on openfoam-extend through a new library called OpenFoamTurbo.

The ERCOFTAC simulation case documented on the Wiki (namely Case0) is a good test case for playing with the new profile1DfixedValue BC.
