In the Pre-Analysis step, we'll review the following:
Similar as before, but considering a rotating frame of reference for the hub.
In part 1 we only analyzed one position of the hub relative to the incoming wind, which might be an over-simplification. We also didn't account for the vortices generated by the blades passing upwind on the blades downstream.
All of these will be accounted in this Sliding Mesh method. In this case Fluent will actually move all components of the geometry and solve a transient problem.
Similar as part 1, but now Fluent will iterate in each time step until it either converged, or reached the maximum iterations per time step defined by the user.
We expect a similar distribution of Velocity, Vorticity and Turbulent KE and before. We also expect the Moment coefficient to be oscillatory.
