TERM PROJECT II
FLOW OVER A NACA AIRFOIL
Introduction
The object of the project is to obtain a CFD solution for flow over a NACA airfoil. The NACA
profile is NACA6416 in this project. It is solved for the following 3 cases;
A) = 0 degrees (Angle of attack), Laminar flow
B) = 10 degrees (Angle of attack), Laminar flow
C) = 10 degrees (Angle of attack), Turbulent flow
For all cases: Used Double precision. For iterative convergence, monitor lift coefficient
CL is approximately constant (within plus minus 0.01) when iteration is stopped.
For Cases A and B , use U=1 m/s, =0.001 kg/m.s , =1 kg/m^3 (Re=1000)
For Case C, use U=1 m/s, =0.000001 kg/m.s, =1 kg/m^3 (Re=1000000)
Used the following velocity inlet conditions:
For Case A: UX =1 m/s, UY =0 m/s
For Cases B and C: UX = U (Cos 10)= 0.985 m/s, UY = U (Sin 10) = 0.174 m/s
Reference Values: Area=1 m^2, =1 kg/m^3, =0.001 kg/m.s (for cases A and B)
=0.000001 kg/m.s (for case C). Note that reference values effect nondimensional
quantities (such as Lift coefficient (CL), Drag coefficient (CD), Pressure coefficient (CP)
only)
