Hello,

For my masters final year project, I am running a 3D wing test case in SU2 and I am trying to supply new deformed surface coordinates for a deformed wing (due to pressure forces from flow passing over it).

I have the .SU2 mesh file which contains the surface coordinates of a undeformed wing, which runs fine. I want to now replace the surface with the new deformed surface, and for it to calculate the locations of the new volume mesh, then perform the steady state simulation.

I have set the following parameters in my .cfg file, but I am not sure if this is the correct thing to do as this is for dynamic mesh motion, where as I just want to update my mesh coordinates one time and then run the steady state simulation.

% ----------------------- DYNAMIC MESH DEFINITION -----------------------------%
%
% Dynamic mesh simulation (NO, YES)
GRID_MOVEMENT= YES
%
% Type of dynamic mesh (NONE, RIGID_MOTION, DEFORMING, ROTATING_FRAME,
% MOVING_WALL, STEADY_TRANSLATION, FLUID_STRUCTURE,
% AEROELASTIC, ELASTICITY, EXTERNAL,
% AEROELASTIC_RIGID_MOTION, GUST)
GRID_MOVEMENT_KIND= EXTERNAL

Could someone please tell me how I can do this?
Thanks!
