  Hello everyone, the other day I went through one of the lessons on using Ansys Fluent - https://courses.ansys.com/index.php/courses/cfd-in-aero/lessons/commercial-aircraft-propulsion-thrust-from-a-convergent-nozzle/
  I did everything right and got the same result as in the lesson:
  - from lesson
  - my data
  But I decided to check the coefficients from the "Results and Discussion" section using the same formulas and nothing matched:
  - - from lesson
  - - my data calculated in MathCad
  The problem is that I can't understand what I calculated wrong. I assume that I do not correctly understand some physical quantities in the formula.

  R is the air specific constant of R_air = R_universal/M_air = 287 J/kg/K, not the universal gas constant.
