Lift and drag coefficients in advanced simulation

[MortenM]

Does anyone know how to get the lift and drag coefficients in advanced simulation?
I'm in a project where we are testing different naca profiles and I want to get these coefficients.

I've used this youtube tutorial to get startet on the flow analysis, with air insted of water:

This thread say that you can either calculate them or you can get them from the report function in nx. I've tried the last one but I didn't get any results in the report.

If you are doing NACA profiles if I were you I'd use XFoil.

It is free and effective. CFD code writing professors use it regularly from what I have observed.

I am in no way affiliated with XFoil.

The project is a part of a product development course here at NTNU (Norwegian University of Science and Technology), where we are supposed to use Siemens NX to solve our problems, but thank you anyways!
