Hello Everybody,

I'm from a Formula Student Team and i'm simulation the aerodynamic concepts. At the time i'm simulating the underbody diffusor.
My problem is I can't display the downforce in Y-direction... It normally brings totaly unnormal values of about 50000N....

My Expression says: force_y()@underbody

underbody is the bottom surface ( I selected it as a separate part in ICEM) of the underbody...
Do i have to select gravity or somthing other?

Am i doing it wrong the hole way?
