error404 is on a distinguished road
Hello,

I have got some problems to determine the torque of an axial turbine. Because when I´m choosing the mesh goemetrie on the blade (pic 1), the power is about 310W. When I´m choosing the mesh geometrie for the blade (pic 2), hub and shroud, the power is about 90W. The Volume on the pictures is the fluid volume and between is the blade (invisible).

Has somebody the solution?

Thx error404
