[Question #648215]: Rotational Resistance

Hello
I am trying to apply very simplified rotational resistance approach proposed by Teufelsbaure in my model. In this approach I am trying to multiply the angular velocity of each particle in all directions by a constant coefficient (something close to 0.99) in each iteration. 

w(i+1)x,y,z=A*w(i)x,y,z           A=0.99  

I am trying to use RotationEnigne however, I am wondering how can assign  rotational velocity of a particle from last iteration to it.(Do you think RotationEngine works or I should use another way?)
If it works should I use separate RotationEnigne for each direction or I can apply all in one?
By the way I am very new Python user.
Thanks in advance
Ataollah
