Hello All,

I have working on an airfoil case using gmsh to obtain the proper drag and lift. I have used this following strategy,

However, I have not obtained a proper drag according to the literature. Can some body guide me in a proper mesh strategy.

Thank you all,

Hi Tareq,

your approach doesn't look bad to me. What exactly is your question regarding the mesh strategy?

I hardly know gmsh. So can you please explain to me how you created your domain? Did you first import your geometry as an *.stl file and thereafter created the boundaries in gmsh?

Best regards,

Kate
