Introduction0:53
Setting up case in Fluent8:48
Post processing results at zero angle of attack (AoA)5:09
Drag coefficient at AoA = 0 and 10 deg - Experimental vs CFD and discussion7:13
Coefficient of pressure at AoA = 0 and 10 deg along with Y+ plots5:40
Plotting CFD Cp (coefficient of pressure) plot in excel5:13
The purpose of this lecture is to :

1. Export the Cp plot on airfoil from fluent.
2. Read in excel and reverse the y axis so that negative values should be on upper side and positive values on down side as usually we see in the literature.
3. Reason for doing so is that " negative Cp values are on upper side of airfoil and positive values are on lower side of airfoil". So in order to Cp plot in same way we need to reverse the Cp plot in excel.
4. In next lecture we will compare this (CFD) Cp plot with the Cp plot from NASA data.
Digitizing experimental Cp plot and comparing with CFD Cp in Excel9:00

Requirements

Basic knowledge of CFD is preferable but not compulsory
Minimum Specs: Computer with 4GB RAM and i3 processor

Description

In this course you will learn about the CFD of external aerodynamics. In this course first we will create geometry of airfoil in ICEMCFD and then we will create high quality hexa mesh. After that we will solve this case in Fluent.

You will run case at angle of attack zero and angle of attack 10 and compare results with NASA data for Cp, lift coefficient and drag coefficient.

In future we will introduce more complex problems. Hope to see you soon on course.
