shuoxue Member Yao Lu Join Date: May 2013 Posts: 33 Rep Power: 12	I'm solving a 3D flow around a circular cylinder case with air dielectric and LES model. However, the drag coefficient of cylinder wall doesn't match the value announced on papers. Reference value is set as follows: length = diameter of cylinder area = diameter * height of cylinder; for 2D case, diameter of cylinder velocity = velocity of inlet viscosity = viscosity of air Are they right or wrong? Thanks in advance.
