Computation <strong>of</strong> Helicoidal Paths<br />
• Helicoidal paths are computed based on<br />
simple actuator disk theory<br />
• Paths depend on estimated power<br />
coefficient<br />
– Paths are periodically updated during<br />
CFX calculation based on latest<br />
computed power coefficient<br />
• Helicoidal paths computed redundantly on<br />
each processor using a Junction Box<br />
routine<br />
– This allows each processor to<br />
compute induced velocities in perfectly<br />
parallel fashion<br />
