windwizard is on a distinguished road
Im doing an external aero simulation on a simplified vehicle geometry and interested in getting component force and moments out.

Ex:

RF Wheel
Iter Time Cl Cd CMP CMY CMR

LF Wheel
Iter Time Cl Cd CMP CMY CMR

Etc.

The only way I can think of getting this out is create a report definition for each force and moment for each component. Then make a report file for each component reading all the definitions. This works fine, but it leads to making 5 report definitions and 1 report file per component. If my geometry has 50 components thats a lot of definitions and files to make, and Im wondering if theres a simpler way to do this?

Ex:

Report Defn 1
RF Wheel Cl

Report Defn 2
RF Wheel Cd

Report Defn 3
RF Wheel CMP

....

Report File 1
Report Defn 1, 2, and 3

Thanks for any help or advice
