Different normalized coefficients for advanced tower model between the code implementation and original AIAA 2015-0214 paper #10

Open Daniel-UCAS opened 6 years ago

Daniel-UCAS commented 6 years ago

In the advanced tower model implementation, the normalized coefficient is scalar c = 2.08325 / (2.0 * pi); see line 3220 in the code horizontalAxisWindTurbinesALMAdvanced.C However, in the AIAA 2015-0214 paper, just after Equation (9), it gives 4.1665*pi. I wonder which one is the right choice. Thank you! Yu Cheng
