Re = 2500000 (2.5e6)
dt = 0.1 (0.01 wasn't working)
length = 40s
cutoff = 10 (40 wasn't working)
Can anyone tweak FI to validate this case?

I think the program is treating the 3-D,2.5:1 'Template' streamline body of revolution as a 2-D streamline section.I don't have Marchaj's table with me but memory( what a joke!) tells me that for best 2-D flow you need 3.92:1 streamline section.That should kill the Karman vortex street your seeing behind the 'Template.'
