I am trying to calculate the drag force due to pressure on part of the wall (not all the wall) who can I done it? I also try to calculate it by F=sum(P*n)
thanks for the help |

It's easiest if you split your surfaces so that the desired region is its own part.
Don't forget to also integrate the wall shear stress to compute the total drag force. |

I think it means split your surface before you mesh it.
