Hi, I'm new to fluent, I am conducting a study comparing wind tunnel data of Cl, Cp to Fluent data. my Cl values are all good up until the stall angle. The Cl does not converge (even after 5,000 iterations), and keeps going up and AoA increases when the wind tunnel Cl drops after the stall. This is really frustrating as I want to do the rest of my analysis but can't because of these obviously incorrect values.



My classmates have managed to get the correct Cl values.

I'm using K-Omega SST, Mesh Quality check was good, sensitivity check was good, approx 148k nodes used, Re approx 332k.
I have attached some screenshots, I am at a loss as to what is wrong here.
