First implementation of a turbulence model in AeroSol

In the long-term strategy of the CAGIRE team, the development of agile simulation, a first step towards auto-adaptive RANS/LES methods was made this summer during the internship of Axelle Perraud. This step consisted in the implementation in AeroSol of a first near-wall resolving turbulence model. Before focusing on innovative RANS and hybrid RANS/LES methods developed in CAGIRE, it was chosen to implement the standard, well-established $k$-$\omega$ RANS model, in order to make possible a straightforward validation in comparison with other CFD codes.
