fragomar New Member Omar Alfredo Fragoso Medina Join Date: Mar 2012 Posts: 4 Rep Power: 14	Hi all I am beginner in Star ccm+ and I want to make a model to simulate a wind turbine (Vertical Axis Wind Turbine VAWT) I am confused about the way to provide the rotation to the rotor. MRF, RBM, 6DOF.. Which is the best way? How to make the simulation? Do I make 2 regions? Someone who can help me? Thanks in advance.
