How does Fluent calculate moments (dyanmic/static)

February 22, 2006, 12:51

What does FLUENT do to calculate the moment? Does it use the total pressure, static, dynamic, etc...?

February 22, 2006, 17:58

from FLUENT Documentation: The forces on a wall zone are computed by summing the dot product of the pressure and viscous forces on each face with the specified force vector. In addition to the actual pressure, viscous, and total forces, the associated force coefficients are also computed, using the reference values specified in the Reference Values panel.

Dear Brain,
I have a question the same with you,I would like to know that you now know the answer to it? If you know, please contact me。
