Flow Design drag problems

Hi, I want to know if I import an .stl model from Shape Design from Catia V5, can produce differents results versus the same .stl model but now from a Body Design from Catia V5, because I think that it had differents results, doesn't must to make a differents results, of Cd Drag, isn't it?

 

And in which format you will recommend me to work, a .stl from Shape Design or a .stl from Body Design.

 

Thanks for all!

Hi

 

I'm not sure about the details of the export methods out of CATIA. If the two STL files are the same and the models are set up the same way (tunnel size, speed, resolution, model units, etc) you should see the same result. Is it possible there are some differences in the geometry included in the STL? I am wondering if one model may have some surfaces missing, if different base units are assumed, etc. If there's any way you can share the file(s) that would be great.
