Analysing a Wing Section When analysing a wing section, we are usually interested in these few things: Coefficient of Lift Coefficient of Drag Most efficient angle of attack Angle of stall Stall characteristics All this can be studied in CFD and is usually preferred over experimental studies as C…

could you do more airfoil simulation?

yes, sir . I want to know how to do different airfoil simulation in different angle of attack and study about there stall condition. If you know any book related airfoil section and there application please tell me. Also if you know how to do in ANSYS fluent software please upload the link or give…

Ok, what I’ll do is write some information on how best to set up a simulation for running at different angles of attack. As for books, I like ‘Theory of Wing Sections’ by Abbott and Doenhoff. The reason I like this book is because there is lots of experimental data so it is good for checking your si…

Updated… I’ll keep adding to this.

Sir I needed help regarding icing of NACA0012 airfoil , I am following this https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/599e/78ee9196ce174d7ee2d021b88e7beb8986be.pdf According to this I need to use Lewint LEWICE to do the same before simulation, how to I proceed ? Is this type of icing simulation possible wi…

Hi @dhruvism , unfortunately, I have never used LEWICE so I don’t really know how it works… Did a google search but was unable to find a download, do you know where I can get a copy? Essentially if it generates a geometry from the using simulation and you need results from it then yes SimScale could…

Greetings Sir I would like to thank you for taking time to reply. Regarding the software , LEWICE is used by NASA so you’d need special permission to access that. So there’s a free alternative to LEWICE which I found called LEWINT, but I’m not able to understand the interface so please help!. It…

Hi @dhruvism , I downloaded LEWICE I too was also a bit baffled by the user interface and the lack of a decent guide. From the project it looks like this is a very iterative approach, gaining CFD results calculating the ice build up and reiterating until we are happy with the results, just so I know …

Hi @shrikant_patil, apologise I don’t quite understand. Do you mean more simulations of different aerofoils?

Thanks for your interest,
Darren
