Hi,
I kindly want to ask whether I can add a .csv data file for the liftDir object in the forceCoeffs file or not? Code:
liftDir (0 0 1); Apologizes if there are some other pages relevant to this issue; however, I couldn't find any. Many thanks in advance. |

I'm not aware of any built in functionality to accomplish this directly.
One possible solution would be to interface with your csv file using a runtime compiled code snippet, which could make this vector a function of time. The simpliest solution would probably be to just write out the force components at every time step and post process them to recompute the coefficient based on your changing lift direction. |
