Is there a method of calculating compression lift for a given body at a given mach number?

06 June 2016 1 10K Report

If I had a geometry, like the XB-70, could I calculate the compression lift it generates? Would using a program like FLUENT be my best shot, or is there a analytical method of estimating this?

You might need to run a case setup and analysis on Fluent, so you could extract lift results.
