Hey Everybody!

I am trying to use SU2 with a rotating reference frame. I have a low velocity (but large angular velocity) and therefor would like to use the incompressible solver instead of the compressible solver.

However when I run SU2 incompressible with rotating reference frame it diverges directly. I noticed that the reference value to compute the forces is given as the Mach number (which you probably don't have enough information for in incompressible flow). The angular velocity goes to infinite in the start up.

Does anybody know if it is possible to run SU2 in incompressible mode when using a rotating reference frame?

Thank you!
