To shorten the time to simulate flow, we develop an automatic and fast grid generator, HexaGrid, that produces Cartesian/prism hybrid grids. The objective of this study is to apply it for drag prediction on NASA Common Research Model (CRM). First, we compare the generated grid with the DPW gridding guideline and discuss about the capability and limitation of HexaGrid. Then, we validate computational results with HexaGrid, comparing with other solvers and grid generators. HexaGrid results agree well with the other results, where the difference of predicted drag is less than 5 counts except for the stall angle. Additionally, we compared the separated flows at attack angle of 4°. The separation lines and Cp distribution are largely affected by grid topologies.
