ebah6 Member Elh. A2. BAH Join Date: Jan 2012 Posts: 64 Rep Power: 14	Dear all, Simulating a vertical axis turbine, I want to get the instantaneous effective angle of attack. Is there a short way of doing this? I want to get its value at every time step so as to see its variation when the blade covers a 360 cycle. Thank you in advance.
