Hello,
I'm struggling with the use of forceCoeffs in controlDict. I don't really understand what "ARef" refers to. I'm trying to calculate the drag coefficient of a cylinder (Diameter = 2 m) so I should enter the surface area of my cylinder (pi*R**2) or the surface area seen by the flow (Diameter*Width) ? Thank you, Enzo |
