Rotor [Aero] sensor

This sensor takes aerodynamic and BEM parameters for all airfoil  Blade aerodynamical station  of the rotor into consideration. The rotor [aero] sensor can be added by toggling on the Sensor  button in the  Rotor  part as shown in the image below:



For multi-rotor turbines, a sensor is available for each rotor

Eight different parameters are included, and they are listed in the table below. For each one, three values are given:
Avg : The average of all airfoil blade aerodynamical stations of the rotor
Max : The maximum value  of all airfoil blade aerodynamical stations of the rotor
Min : The maximum value of all airfoil blade aerodynamical stations of the rotor
