EXP is on a distinguished road
Hi everyone,
I'm a P.h.D student. I'm working on CFD problem about a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT). Actually I'm studing the dynamic behaviour of a two-dimensional VAWT with three rotating blades. In order to characterize the lift coefficient over a complete revolution of the airfoil, my question is: how can I compute the angle of attack at every time step for each airfoil?
I hope that someone can suggests me the solution,
Thanks in advance!!!
EXPO.
