Hi everyone,

I am currently working on simulating airfoil performance using OpenFOAM and would greatly appreciate some assistance with validation cases. Specifically, I am interested in simple foam calculations of an airfoil using the k-ω SST turbulence model. My goal is to compare my results with real-world values to ensure the accuracy of my simulations.

Requirements:
  • Airfoil Profile: NACA 0012 or similar NACA profile.
  • 3D Simulation: It would be very helpful if the validation cases include 3D calculations.
  • Reynolds Number: 1,000,000 or 2,000,000
  • Low Re number wallfunction and High Re wallfunction



Desired Output:
  • Lift and drag coefficients (Cl and Cd) for the specified Reynolds numbers.
  • Comparison with experimental or well-validated numerical data.
  • Description of the computational setup, including:
Mesh details (type, size, and quality metrics)
Boundary conditions
Solver settings
Turbulence model parameters
Purpose:
I plan to use these cases to validate my own simulation setup in OpenFOAM. Having access to detailed validation cases will help me check my simulations against known results and refine my computational models accordingly.

Additional Information:
If possible, please provide any relevant OpenFOAM case files or scripts that you used for your simulations. This will allow me to reproduce the results more effectively and understand the nuances of your setup.

Thank you in advance for your help. I look forward to your responses and any suggestions or guidance you can provide.

Best regards,

Snacker
