Before you plot, you can adjust the Axes and Curves to get a better view.

Similarly, you can plot the lift coefficient, which should be zero for the symmetric flow. As you can see, the drag coefficient is around 2.1, which is significantly higher than the result in the table. Next, we will try to increase the domain size and repeat the simulation.
