ABL Simulation without temperature field?

[LutzRohlfing]

I have a question regarding the ABL module in AMR-Wind: is it possible to run it without the temperature field? I am assuming this is not possible, especially given the TODO comment in amr-wind/amr-wind/wind_energy/ABL.cpp at line 30, but perhaps there is a workaround. Is it possible to set up a case without a temperature field where I can specify a reference height with the corresponding wind speed and a ground roughness z0 ?

You can cheat the solver and run without any temperature changes. However, in current formulation it is impossible to run without temperature_Solve. Just set ABL.temperature_values to be constant during initialisation throughout the ABL and that's the closest you can get.
