Class
    Foam::fixedTrim
 
Description
    Trim model where the operating characteristics of rotor
    (e.g. blade pitch angle) are fixed, hence the possibility
    of varying thrust and torque.
 
Usage
    Minimal example by using \c constant/fvOptions:
    rotorDiskSource1
    {
        // Mandatory/Optional (inherited) entries
        ...
 
        // Mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
        trimModel    fixedTrim;
 
        fixedTrimCoeffs
        {
            // Conditional mandatory entries (runtime modifiable)
 
                // when trimModel=fixedTrim
                theta0   5.0;
                theta1c  1.0;
                theta1s  4.0;
        }
    }
