Hello

I am trying to validate my CFD model using the experimental data published in the literature. However, I am not very sure on the CFD model validation procedure since the geometry of my model is different from the geometry used for the experimental setup... does this mean that I should simulate the geometry of the experimental and compare my CFD results with the results obtained in literature??? Then if the two match, I can change the geometry to my geometry??? Will that make my model valid ?
Or should I simulate my model using their fluid and then use dimensionless variables to compare between their experimental results of their geometry and my CFD results of my geometry ??

I thought that the results produced by CFD also depend on the geometry on the model. I am sorry if my question isn’t very clear, I feel a bit confused on the validation process. Thank you !!
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
