For EACH surface in your geometry, state below what boundary condition you have applied, briefly describe what that boundary condition does, state how the software applies that condition at the boundary nodes, and explain why you selected it.Annotate the image to show what you have named each surface of the geometry: Run_1 should be a coarse, unrefined mesh purely to get your simulation working (you will add refinements later).Use ‘Water’ as the fluid and assume that the flow is incompressible, steady, isothermal, and turbulent. Note that the length scale used in the Reynolds number is the chord length of the airfoil section in the model. You should run your simulation at a Reynolds number of 6x106.Your simulation should be for a 5o angle of attack, and a 24-inch chord length (for comparison against the NACA experimental data).Note that it is down to you to modify dimensions to set the extents of your domain in all directions, and to set your foil chord and angle of attack – don’t just run with the dimensions given to you.

The file Aerofoil_Instructions_2011.doc (also on the portal) explains how to modify the geometry parameters using SolidWorks. It was converted to notepad by adding z coordinate as zero.

The generator output excel file was given in term of x and y coordinates.

The foil geometry has been created in SolidWorks for you – the file aerofoil_CW_2011.SLDPRT can be found on the DSGN313 Tulip site under CFD Coursework. Firstly the airfoil model have generated in the airfoil generator 10.

Carry out the steps as follows:Ĭarry out a basic CFD simulation (named “Run_1”) of a NACA 642-015 foil noting the following: do not have to fit into the space provided – insert extra space as necessary, but keep answers concise. You will then submit the completed document for assessment. Instead, you will work through this document (using it as a template), adding content and answering questions as instructed.

You will not be writing a formal report for this project. You are going to use CFD to simulate a 2-d foil and compare your results to those obtained experimentally in a wind tunnel, detailed in a NACA paper from 1945.
