AeroDyn-force #2190

Open HANloading opened 6 months ago

HANloading commented 6 months ago

Hello, everyone. Can I export the normal and tangential forces PN and PT of a blade in openfast?

HANloading commented 6 months ago

Also, after I output the axial and tangential forces per unit length of each blade in openfast (B1N1Fn, B1N2Fn,B1N3Fn) to derive the data like inside the brackets, what if I derive the axial and tangential forces for the whole blade? Is there a conversion formula?

Dear @HANloading,

Regarding your first question, the full list of outputs available from AeroDyn are documented here: https://openfast.readthedocs.io/en/main/_downloads/3f19498a5dc774461e022b671ff01ec6/OutListParameters.xlsx.

I'm not sure I understand your second question.

Best regards,
