I guess 'mu' does not have muc

I guess 'mu' does not have much meaning in icoFoam. Case in point, since both sides of the transport equation are divided by rho, p* = p/rho as Eugene mentioned. So the pressure Openfoam calculates...

Actually F_Lift/rho is just what I need. However, since rho can be taken as unity as Hrv menttioned, I can modify A_ref to account for rho by using A_ref_eff = A_ref * rho. The 'rho' here would be...
