  Hi, is it possible to find Cl/Cd in Ansys Fluent?
  would I just need to find Cl, Cd and then just divide them?
  
  thanks in advance

  You can generate individual reports for Cl and Cd and then create a named expression for the ratio of Cl/Cd.
  
  Thanks!

  You may want to read/do the NACA air/aero foil tutorials for more information. Especially if you want any coefficients.
