Class
    Foam::turbulentMixingLengthDissipationRateFvScalarFieldSource
 
Description
    This source condition provides a turbulence dissipation, \f$\epsilon\f$
    (epsilon), based on a specified mixing length. The source values are
    calculated using:
 
        \f[
            \epsilon = \frac{C_{\mu}^{0.75} k^{1.5}}{L}
        \f]
 
    where
 
    \vartable
        \epsilon | epsilon values
        C_{\mu}  | Model coefficient, set to 0.09
        k        | turbulence kinetic energy
        L        | length scale
    \endvartable
 
    In the case of a sink, the current cell values are used instead.
 
Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        mixingLength | Length scale [m]        | yes         |
        k            | turbulence kinetic energy field name | no | k
        Cmu          | Turbulence model coefficient | no | 0.09
    \endtable
 
    Example of the source condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <sourceName>
    {
        type            turbulentMixingLengthDissipationRate;
        mixingLength    0.005;
    }
    \endverbatim
