vkrastev Senior Member Vesselin Krastev Join Date: Jan 2010 Location: University of Tor Vergata, Rome Posts: 368 Rep Power: 20	Hi, can someone help me about using the forces and forceCoeffs functions to calculate the lift and drag force coefficients for a simple 2d incompressible aerodynamic case? In particular, i'd like to know the meaning of the following parameters: pitchAxis (0 0 0); magUInf 289.16; lRef 1; Aref 1; Thank you in advance
