I can calculate moment coefficient (Cm) versus flow-time for one revolution. Then I tried to calculate moment based on the formula: M = 1/2rhoV^2ARCm Does ANSYS Fluent calculate Cm based on the relative velocity between wind velocity (inlet velocity) and rotational velocity of turbine (V(t/g) = omega*R)? I tried to google it but it seems like no one has ever asked this question. Thank you very much for your help.
