How can you monitor the Torque and Thrust in a CFX 11.0 Solver calculation?


You need to definine an expression for the Torque or Thrust at a particular region and then add a Monitor Point in the Solver Control to be able to monitor this in the Solver Manager. Torque is one of the available functions in CFX-Pre Expression Editor that you can utilise to do this. Please see the following section of CCL:

FLOW:
OUTPUT CONTROL:
MONITOR OBJECTS:
MONITOR POINT:Torque MP
Expression Value = Torque Exp
Option = Expression
END
MONITOR POINT:Axial Thrust MP
Expression Value = Axial Thrust
Option = Expression
END
END
END
END

LIBRARY:
CEL:
EXPRESSIONS:
Axial Thrust = force_z()@R1 Blade + force_z()@R1 Hub
Torque Exp = torque_z()@R1 Blade + torque_z()@R1 Hub
END
END
END
