Learning objectives

  • Understand the impact of a body's geometry on its aerodynamic performance and the value of using a profiled body and hypersustaining devices.
  • Know the general characteristics of a flow around a wing profile and the role of incidence.
  • Understand the problem of modeling turbulent flow in CFD software.
  • Simulate digitally (with Fluent Ansys) flow around a wing profile to calculate its aerodynamic coefficients.
