Summary0001724: Robustness of SST
DescriptionA simulation of the '2D NASA Wall-Mounted Hump Separated Flow Validation Case' crashed due to an issue in kOmegaSST::F1(const volScalarField& CDkOmega) and kOmegaSST::F2(). I didn't investigate further but replacing sqrt(k_) with sqrt(max(k_,kMin_)) in both functions solved the issue.

I would need to spend a bit more time on the overflow limiters; I am guessing that the issue is with overflow rather than a start-up problem with k = 0.

Could you supply the test-case to reproduce the problem here?

CFD setup does not match the real setup but it should help to identify the problem. Case was made for simpleFoam

It's probably necessary to set the relaxation of k/omega to 0.5

This case runs OK in OpenFOAM-dev. I am adding the k limiters from dev to 2.4.x and will push after testing.
