NielsHaw New Member Niels Hawinkel Join Date: Mar 2016 Posts: 6 Rep Power: 10	I'm trying to model the drag coefficient on a car. When i set the Turbulence Intensity to 15% at the inlet and outlet backflow and plot the result, I can see that the turbulence intensity immediatly drops to basically 0% right after the inlet (so it has no influence). The turbulence viscosity ratio is 10 and I use a uniform velocity profile (25m/s horizontal at inlet). How do I solve this?
