Guys,

Doing a simple study to compare the Cp values to theta from a published paper.

I have used the same domain size/physical model/similar grid resolution/material and boundary conditions, however I am not getting the same value for Cp to theta.

Basically at the stagnation point (0 Degrees) I am getting a value of nearer 2... where experimental data, and the published paper suggest it should be 1.

I read somewhere that it may be an issue with the domain size.

Any thoughts?

Cheers
