Consider the steady flow past a cylinder at Re=40. Simulate this flow using FLUENT. Note that the only parameter you need to change is the kinematic viscosity.

...

1.

...

Plot the streamlines near the cylinder.

...

2.

...

Calculate the drag coefficient from your FLUENT results and compare with Bengt Fonberg's paper, "A numerical study of steady viscous flow past a cylinder" (1980).
