pnStudy: conical wind with wedge tip

Add a wedge tip to test if it solves the "piston/knots" issue along the y-axis

  1. The wedge tip is added using a wedge angle and tangent line to the edge to original conical wind launching region (circle in the testing example). The new launching region is now the circle + a wedge with the Info%q as the values of initial ambient at the area. The wedge area is marked as red in the following picture

  1. Compare the result with(left panel)/without Wedge tip (wedge angle = 15 deg)

​comparison movie up to 300 y

  1. Conclusion: seems making things worse..
