Hello everyone,<\/p>\n

I am conducting simulations on a 2D wing airfoil, as shown in the first attached picture.<\/p>\n

As you can see, the wing airfoil consists of more than one part, with a movable plate at the top of the trailing edge that can be opened (see the second attached picture).<\/p>\n

I aim to calculate the lift and drag coefficients (cl and cd) of the wing airfoil. I have a doubt. To accomplish this, while creating the “Named Selection” for the airfoil, should I select only the boundary edges of the fixed part without including the boundary edges of the moving part, or should I select all the boundary edges, both those of the fixed part and those of the moving part?<\/p>\n

Thank you for your support ????.<\/p>\n
