Hello,
Unfortunately as an Ansys employee I am not able to share anything with you through this forum, hopefully someone else can help you out with this. However, I can suggest that your AeroDyn input file may be missing some key lines like:
====== Rotor/Blade Properties ========================
True UseBlCm - Include aerodynamic pitching moment in calculations? (flag)
"BladeData.dat" ADBlFile(1) - Name of file containing distributed aerodynamic properties for Blade #1 (-)
"BladeData.dat" ADBlFile(2) - Name of file containing distributed aerodynamic properties for Blade #2 (-) [unused if NumBl < 2]
"BladeData.dat" ADBlFile(3) - Name of file containing distributed aerodynamic properties for Blade #3 (-) [unused if NumBl < 3]
The number of entries should match the number of blades (3 in this example). I hope this helps.
Mike
