aerodynamic characteristics of different airfoils using Qblade software
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
Step 1: Select different types of airfoils
Step 2: Use the following links
to get data base of aifoils, importing it to Qblade software and obtaining results
such as
1.
Airfoiltools http://airfoiltools.com/airfoil/naca4digit or
2.
UIUC airfoil data base https://m-selig.ae.illinois.edu/ads/coord_database.html
3. How to import Airfoils Database in Qblade software https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=armdUFtjKAk
4.
Repeat Point 3 and become familier with importing
coordinates to Qblade software.
5.
How to find CL
and CD graph of NACA foil with Q blade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7YgTPyzfOE&t=280s
6.
Point 5 can be
performed for any type of airfoil irrespective of NACA airfoil
7.
Find all the graphs such as a)Cl(lift
coefficient) vs Alpha(angle of attack) b)Cd(Drag coefficient ) vs Alpha c) Cl vs Cd for each airfoil using Point 5
8.
Obtain the all
the graphs for each airfoil. Totally for 4 different airfoils, there should be
12 graphs.
9.
Compare all the
four different types of aifoils with the results and interpret their results.
10. Start
writing report according to list of table of contents
provided.
List of contents for the
report
1.
