Wind tunnel results

Hello!
I run simulation for NACA 2415 airfoil up to AOA 14 deg. in CFX. I get the same drag coefficients like in books but I get higher (about 0.2) lift coefficients. Then I run simulation with the same grid and other parameters for NACA 2412. I get the same results like in book. Do you think it is possible that lift coefficients for NACA 2415 in book are not correct? Cheers |

Lift coefficients in book are about 0,04 lower. Difference is about 8%. But for NACA 2412 difference is only 1%. I use same grid and solver parameters in both cases.
