fluid flow aroud a cylinder

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Does anyone know why in the "cylinder flow" example of the comsol tutorial, the solution is not accurate? The drag coefficient I have calculated is 2.5, however in the papers it is 1.34 (Reynolds=100 ). I checked the problem for a large domain (100 D) and the issue still exists.
