e30.lsb is on a distinguished road
can someone explain me, how does Fluent calculate the pressure and viscous force ?

In the handbook in section "29.3.1 Computing Forces, Moments, and the Center of Pressure" it is only described, that the total force component is computed using the pressure and viscous force vector.

But, hoe are they calculated?? I didn't found anything about that in the manual...

Thank you!
