I have once again adjusted my UDF. But still I can't find a way to retrieve the value of the working torque. Can someone give me a hint about this? Thank you very much

alpha_t= Mt/Jt; /*M = J*alpha, but how can I retrieve the value of Mt?*/


omega_ts+=alpha_t*CURRENT_TIMESTEP;


 


if (omega_ts > omega_tf)


{omega_ts = omega_tf;}


 


THREAD_VAR(t).fluid.omega=omega_ts; /*I'm also not sure about this syntax or macro*/


}
