Community,
Is it possible to apply an aerodynamic pressure load to a cylinder in Creo Simulate 10.0. The load needs to be applied to one half of the cylinder and in the same direction, not normal to the surface. Trying to achieve the pressure direction in the attached image that shows "Need this", except arrows pointing down from the top or outside of the curved surface. Thanks in advanced.

Based upon the Help Center, it is not possible to produce a distribution other than normal to the surface.
Thanks for the file. However, that did not address what I was attempting, but close. I am looking for pressure not force. I tried the interpolation technique for pressure, but the pressure is still normal to the surface. It will work for force. The below image shows force vs pressure when using the same interpolation technique. I am attempting this for a project, and I saw that it can be done in ANSYS, for pressure. I have not tried it using (fx). In the image of two cylinders, I am trying to get the pressure distribution to look like the force distribution. The image on the left can be obtained by just splitting the surface and interpolation is not needed.
