setting up pressure coefficient of VAWT in ANSYS Fluent -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

FaSe New Member LordF Join Date: Jan 2016 Posts: 18 Rep Power: 10	Hi I'm simulating a 2D vawt in ANSYS Fluent 16. I want to calculate drag, lift and momentum coefficients. I know that putting the correct reference values is very important BUT how can i calculate these coefficients all together in just one simulation. Because in the reference values, Length and Area are different for calculating "Drag, Lift coefficients" and "Torque coefficient". Airfoil: NACA0021 Chord Length= 265 mm Blade Span= 1.2 m I appreciate any help. Last edited by FaSe; January 13, 2017 at 16:08.
