Hey guys,
I am trying to simulate a NACA 0015 airfoil at high AoA (about 16 degrees)
I am getting oscillating cl and cd values when I run a steady simulation.
Upon switching to an unsteady simulation, for very small time steps( of the order 1e-5) the cl and cd values become constant, but are incorrect. When I increase the timestep ( to about 1s or 2s) the oscillating behavior of cl and cd plots returns.
How do I get convergence?
