| #### Menter’s k-omega SST Model #### | ||
| As initial conditions, the values of are initialized at all grid point with the farfield values. The farfield conditions for the turbulent kinetic energy $k$ is computed as: $k = \frac{3}{2}(UI)$, whereby $U$ is the freestream velocity magnitude and $I$ is the turbulence intensity. This latter value can be specified in the config file by the `FREESTREAM_TURBULENCEINTENSITY` field, with defaul value to 0.05 which corresponds to a $5\%$. The freestream value of the turbulent frequency $\omega$ is computed as: $\omega = \frac{\rho k}{\mu}(\frac{\mu_t}{\mu})^{-1}$, where $\rho$ and $\mu$ are the freestream density and laminar viscosity respectively and $\frac{\mu_t}{\mu}$ is the turbulent viscosity ratio, also known as freestream dissipation. Its value can be specified in the `FREESTREAM_TURB2LAMVISCRATIO` field, defaulting to $10$. |

Would be nice if someone checks the boundary conditions for omega. I am not that familiar with the k-w model.

| - `SST_OPTIONS`: | ||
| - `NONE`: No SST turbulence model (default). | ||
| - `V1994m`: refers to the "Standard" Menter SST model from 1994 with the modified constant $\sigma_{k1}$ and the redefinition of the turbulent eddy viscosity. | ||
| - `V2003m`: refers to the Menter SST model from 2003 ignoring the $\tau_{ij}$ in the momentum and energy equations and the production term is approximated by $P = \mu_t S^2$. | ||

This does not have to be repeated here... just point to the section in Physical definition.

Update the documentation of Solver-Setup.md
The idea is to make divide #59 into small pull requests in order to make things smoother and easier. This one addresses only the Solver-Setup.md.
There is documentation for certain fields still missing, e.g., SST_OPTIONS. I am not sure about each of them. I will work on that.Done.There seems to be some problem with markdown-latex that I cannot solve. I will work on that.Something is odd. In my local machine everything works fine.
