VSPAERO Actuator Disk and Propeller Functions

The following group of functions provide API capability for setting up actuator disks (Disk tab of VSPAERO GUI) and propellers (Propeller tab of VSPAERO GUI) for VSPAERO analysis. If a propeller geometry is used to model the actuator disk, the “PropMode” must be set to PROP_DISK or PROP_BOTH. Alternatively, the “PropMode” but be set to PROP_BLADE or PROP_BOTH for unsteady analysis. must be set to PROP_DISK or PROP_BOTH.
