Simulating the ground effect

[ss-hegde]

Hello all,

I am trying to simulate the propeller wake-ground interactions. I could find a function which generates the ground surface.

"""
    Generates ground surface.
"""
function generate_ground_vahana(bscale; verify_spline=false, spl_s=0.001,
                                spl_k="automatic", visualize=false)

How should I define this ground in the simulation, so that the wake interacts with the ground surface?

Thanks in advance!

Hello, have you solved this problem yet. How did you define this ground function. Very much looking forward to your answer

The capabilities for modeling the ground with a panel method are available in the flowpanel-prototype branch but no documentation or examples are yet provided for users since these features are still under heavy development.
