Hi,
What is the difference between the REF_LENGTH and SEMI_SPAN values. How do they influence the force coefficients in case of a rotating frame? I see RefLength is used for calculating the momentum coefficients (for example in CNSSolver.cpp). Where can I find for what the SEMI_SPAN value is used for? if (iDim == 3) { MomentViscous[0] += (Force[2]*MomentDist[1] - Force[1]*MomentDist[2])/RefLength; MomentX_Force[1] += (-Force[1]*Coord[2]); MomentX_Force[2] += (Force[2]*Coord[1]); ...
