where we could read the properties value?

hai all, as usually i used cfd to see the flow visualization in post processing. iam little confuse with how to read the value of properties such drag and lift coefficient, temperature, pressure, etc. could you help me to overcome. where and how i could read the properties not in flow visualization but in number and data.

thank you

Hi,

In CFD-Post you can use the function calculator to give you the forces in the three coordinate directions on a surface. From these forces you can calculate CL, CD, centre of force etc.

yah i know, but where i could get the aerodynamic forces and moments?

Hi,

??!!!?? The CFD-Post function calculator gives you the aerodynamic forces and moments. So what are you looking for?
