My use-case is a simple air speed sensor to be used in an open-flow setting. The sensor consists of a simple 3-bladed radial impeller which in real-life would pivot between two jewel bearings. My simulation goal was to do a coarse parameter sweep to minimise starting air speed i.e. the air speed at which the impeller will overcome breakaway / static friction and start to turn. My metric of interest therefore is moment about the rotation axis, with the goal to maximise it. The secondary goal is to estimate the impeller's 'natural' rotational speed as a function of design parameters.
