Hi everyone,

For a study, I need to determine the thrust and power coefficient for a propeller blade.
I'm using MRF in FLUENT to do the analysis, and currently in post-analysis.
I used three section, which includes
stationary, in front of the rotor
rotating, containing the blades,
stationary behind the rotor
My question are:

1) How do I determine the thrust and power for the propeller blade? Based on my readings on other thread, they said its in report->force. But I can't seems to understand the result obtain. i.e which value to take.

Wall-Surrounding is my rotating section containing blades.
The blade is rotating on z-axis.

Kindly please help me on this matter.
