Popis: Airfoil design is a major facet of aerodynamics. Various airfoils serve different flight regimes. Asymmetric aero foils can generate lift at zero angle of attack, while a symmetric aero foils exhibit no lift at the same case. The design of the Airfoil has a great influence in the lift provided to an aircraft and the thrust required to make the lift take place. The geometry design of the airfoil is carried through Design Modeler. The analysis work of the airfoil is carried using Ansys Fluent. The coefficient of lift and drag are calculated through constant density throughout the section.
