Cylinder modeling with body forces

Hello,
I would like to model the blockage and the decrease in velocity induced by a cylinder by introducing body forces in my solver. ( I am modelling wind turbine wake with actuator line model) I am thinking about using the drag force with Cd=1 and putting this force in the Reynolds equation. I have several questions: - Do you know any litterature about this blunt body modelling? - Should I input the force over a disk or over the volume where the cylinder is supposed to be? Thanks in advance, Bruno |
