*AEROPROF, fILE=$path\filename.dat

Data card :

One line with 1 values

IPRO

Status :

Optional

Purpose :

To define aerodynamic coefficients on a generic line with the same convention as the blades of a turbine

Restrictions :

A *BEAMPRO property must have been created

Details :

Parameter Description
IPRO Identification number of the *BEAMPRO that is used to fefine the generic line
Filename.dat ASCII file with a first line containing two parameters :

NANG NRE

With
NANG: Number of angles of attack defined in the file
NRE: Number of Reynolds numbers defined in the file
Then (NANG+1)xNRE number of lines are defined
with for each Reynolds Number

Re(i)
Ang(1) Cl(1,i) Cd(1,i), Cm(1,i)
...
Ang(NANG) Cl(NANG,i) Cd(NANG,i), Cm(NANG,i)

Cl, Cd, Cm are respectively the lift drag and moment coefficients
