Fan simulation
Dear fellow SU2 users,
I am trying to find more information on the "Engine Simulation" section in the SU2 config template (see code snippet below). Unfortunately, I cannot find any relevant test cases, tutorials or publications on this feature.
I have several questions:
1) What is meant by "MRF"?
2) Can I use the model also for a 2D-axisymmetric cases or just for a full or half model of the engine?
3) If I define ACTDISK_JUMP= RATIO, I assume I can define the total pressure ratio across the "engine". Where can I define the desired value for the pressure jump?
4) Do you know of any example configuration files, which I can use to base my own simulation setups on?
Thank you for your help!
