Modeling External Turbulent Flows in COMSOL Multiphysics®

Duration: 1:01:17

In part 2 of this 5-part video series on CFD modeling, you will learn how to model external turbulent flow, choose RANS models for external flows, create a customized mesh, and evaluate lift and drag forces on an object. We also discuss creating plots based on vorticity and Q-criterion.
