The problem with calculating the lift of the propellers #141
Comments
Hi @nbvtim2008 and @Dick-Tator, I don't think you can get usable forces on revoxelized moving geometry. The revoxelization with velocity boundary conditions puts nearby cells far off equilibrium, and their DDFs relax only in the few time steps before the next revoxelization. The interval between revoxelizations is not a physical parameter (has to be chosen somewhat small though, 1-10 time steps), and the forces through momentum exchange algorithm will depend on this interval and where within the interval you read them. For thrust measurement, it's better to not measure forces on the propeller, but average flux (from velocity field) through an area behind the propeller. Kind regards, |
Hello, you have created a wonderful program, but could you tell me the code for calculating the lift and torque of the propeller, when I try, the thrust is either 0, or NaN, or Inf, and also please tell me how to set a certain rotation speed, for example 1000 rad/s
