ENH: add generalised log-law type ground-normal inflow boundary conditions for
wind velocity and turbulence quantities for homogeneous, two-dimensional,
dry-air, equilibrium and neutral atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) modelling
ENH: remove `zGround` entry, which is now automatically computed
ENH: add `displacement height` entry, `d`
ENH: add generalised atmBoundaryLayerInletOmega boundary condition
ENH: add a verification case for atmBoundaryLayerInlet BCs
DOC: improve atmBoundaryLayerInlet header documentation
BUG: fix value-entry behaviour in atmBoundaryLayerInlet (fixes#1578)
Without this change:
- for serial-parallel computations, if `value` entry is available in
an `atmBoundaryLayerInlet` BC, the theoretical ABL profile expressions
are not computed, and the `value` entry content is used as a profile data
- for parallel computations, if `value` entry is not available, `decomposePar`
could not be executed.
With this change:
- assuming `value` entry is always be present, the use of `value` entry for
the ABL profile specification is determined by a flag `initABL`
- the default value of the optional flag `initABL` is `true`, but whenever
`initABL=true` is executed, `initABL` is overwritten as `false` for the
subsequent runs, so that `value` entry can be safely used.
Thanks Per Jørgensen for the bug report.
