Hi everyone,
I am performing the simulation of NASA CRM using ANSYS Fluent 14.0, I have created an unstructured mesh using ICEM CFD. I have few questions..
1. I don't know why i m getting abnormal values of Cl and Cd..?
2. Can anyone tell me how to set the reference values..?

May be i have put in the wrong reference values.

The values that i am using are
Area: 4130 ft^2
Length: 1190 ft

I shall b very thankful for your help.

Regards
Sulman Aziz

Thank your very much for this quick response.
I have attached the files of geometry, mesh and convergence history plots of Cd and Cl.
The current values for Cl = -1.0880e+01
Cd = 2.3813e+01
