Hello,
I am trying to understand which twist I should use to represent pitch misalignment of a single blade? Is it ElastoDyn_blades > "StrcTwst" or AeroDyn15_blade > "BlTwist" ? From my understanding, changing "BlTwist" by constant angle throughout the span will represent the same aerodynamic load as for the pitch misalignment. Please correct me if I am wrong. I am confused what "BlTwist" does then? Does it account for the change in structural properties due to misalignment in overall structural dynamics? I would appreciate if anyone could help me understand this.
