Hi.
I'm needing some help on a case here: i have cylinder in laminar 2D flow, and would like to describe the velosities and the pressure as field functions(at least I think thats the best way), and want to calculate drag and lift. As i start the simulation i got this error: Unable to compute field function Velocity on cells of region "Fluid". please check that function is defined here? and i really dont know what to do with it. Can anyone please help me?? |

This is the way I do it.
-Setup a XY plot where the pressure and distance is the function. -Export as a .csv file. -Import in data Analysis program (I use Igor). Run regression analysis. |
