Hi all,

I successfully made a 2D VAWT simulation at a constant specified RPM and wind speed.
I'd like to try a slight modification to it, namely: start the RPM at 0 and ramp it up to a given RPM, with wind speed remaining constant, so I can see the airflow interaction. How would I go about doing this?

For info: I used the AMI implementation from the pimpleDyMFoam/propeller tutorial. Based on my rudimentary programming skills, I hope I'd only need to insert some sort of ramp function into dynamicMeshDict? Or would I need to mess with the source code?

Your input is appreciated!
