Standard Wall Function Code Fluent

This CFD code defines a standard wall function to calculate wall boundary conditions. It includes constants, identifies the wall cell and adjacent cell, calculates the distance between cell centroids, and uses that distance to calculate the dimensionless wall distance (y+) based on turbulence properties. It then returns the appropriate wall function value depending on what type of variable is requested (velocity, velocity gradient, etc.).
