Hi guys I have a problem with the post-processing of my simulation for a truck. I used the function object to obtain the cumulative drag on the binfield. My question is how to plot this results in a decent way. It seems like a mess the .txt file and the drag along my truck looks like reducing along the wheelbase. Someone can help me ?
Thank you for the answers

Hello Slashim,

I'm not sure to understand your problem, maybe you can post an example of the result you get?

I don't know about trucks, but on a car it is not unusual to see the drag reducing between front and rear wheels.
