Hi everyone,

First off thanks for looking at my question and any feedback you could give me would be greatly appreciated!

I'm trying to run some CFD modelling but I'm not sure the flow would be laminar or turbulent as the geometry isn't just a straight tube (see the attached 2D image of the 3D design). Can COMSOL calculate the reynolds number for the geometry so I know which physics I should be used?

FYI I'm a novice at both COMSOL and fluid dynamics.

Thanks for your help.
