      Hi there,

      I was trying 3rd step of Fluent but the problem I am facing of is my design doesn't show up in the categories. I was watching youtube video and I did everything exactly but he got it and I couldn't. I don't know any reason for it.

      Could you please help me?

      I am not sure if I made the necessary explanation to you...

      Hi,

      I advise you to visit the meshing and look at the name selections once.

      Please watch this video for additional information on modelling external aerodynamics simulation:

      Hope you find this useful

      Thank you

      I suspect you'd don't need to mesh inside the drone either. For most drag calculations we only care about the "outside" air flow. That'll save you mesh and remove the interface zones that are probably where you went wrong.
