Dear all,
I am attempting a CFD simulation with no formal training, only basic fluid dynamics. I am attempting to validate the use of a 2D CFD method so I can use it in my project. The aerofoil I am simulating is called NACA 24112; I am simulating it at 3.5 deg angle of attack and at 1mm chord scale. Due to the scale of my model in order to have a Reynolds number of 50,000 I would need to simulate at 700m/s which is beyond the method I am using. http://airfoiltools.com/airfoil/deta...4112-jf#polars My values of lift and drag co-efficient are HIGHLY dependent on the velocity of the flow which means I cannot match my data to the given data. The velocity profile seems reasonable. Can anyone help me validate this? |
