I am looking to implement an end effects model for an actuator line code. However, all the tip loss corrections I find rely on rotor parameters, e.g. tip speed ratio. Is there a more general function available the describes how lift tapers to zero at, e.g. static wing tips? This actuator line is in a Navier--Stokes modeled flow field, so the potential flow lifting line results are confusing to adapt. However, I do have access to the local velocity and pressure fields.
