Hi all,

I developed an incompressible turbulent single phase flow solver with a generalized actuator disk model acting as a local volume force. I can specify forces and torques as a prescribed input.
However, I'd like to compute these forces as function of local flow conditions (U and other parameters)... any hint on how could I do it?

Thank you
