Makes sense. Just wanted to throw up an issue since it's part of the review.

Notebooks 0 and 1 have version numbers in them as well. These should probably be automatically inserted using `git describe`, if they're even necessary at all.

May need to pull from the `plus` branch to get this working. The installation process for `dev` is slightly different.

Hi Farzad, That dictionary defines two points to define a cylinder to model the hub. Since it becomes a single element actuator line, it's just a spherical Gaussian distribution of...

It's a crude implementation to be used as an approximation. Imagine the element data describes the geometry of a cylinder along the vertical direction. We will put an element between...

@andersgoude can you check out this branch and give it a test? A reminder in case you haven't done this yet: ``` git remote add upstream https://github.com/turbinesFoam/turbinesFoam.git git fetch upstream...

Thanks for testing. I may have changed my mind on this, that you had it right the first time, and that this should be defined on a turbine level (as...

Vorticity shed from A NACA 0021 at 24 degrees angle of attack having `cm = -0.05`: ![image](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/4604869/10708430/1a29ea2c-79d6-11e5-9c6f-8435373c51e2.png) (Simulated with https://github.com/petebachant/NACAFoil-OpenFOAM)

Idea from @Toby-D: Calculate the new aerodynamic center and apply the resultant force there. For a static case I don't think this would reproduce a vorticity field like above, but...

A similar simulation for a stalled actuator line (arrows show force on the flow, not on the actuator line): ![image](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/4604869/10802411/250809f4-7d93-11e5-92e3-5fd26366c361.png) The correct sign of vorticity is produced (note that the...
