Hello,
I am running a simple wind flow simulation for a 25 inclined plane to find the force of lift to compare with what I calculated with a by hand. The lift force I obtain using Fluent differs greatly and the values that it gives me are much below what it should be. My setup: 20mph wind flow over a 1'X1' 25 degree inclined plane Anyone have any suggestions for getting Fluent to output realistic values for forces? |

Hi Maharvey!
Have you defined the lift in the Z axis? Because Fluent calculates the lift in the Y axis Regards! -Edu- |
