Fluid forces computation

      Dear community,

      I've read the fluent documentation without finding out the way fluent computes the hydrodynamic forces and moments. I've just understand that it use both pressure and viscous contribute. I would like to know the exact equations for both forces and moments. 

       

      Many thanks

      Hi,

      I suggest you to check fluent theory guide where it has mentioned how the forces and moment is calculated: 26.2.1. Computing Forces, Moments, and the Center of Pressure (ansys.com)

      Hope this helps.
