CFD Analysis of NACA 2412 and NACA 2412 with Passage for Lift Augmentation
Abstract: Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis of a three dimensional (3-D) National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) 2412 airfoil was compared with same dimensional 3-D NACA 2412 with internal passage. The computational domain was composed of 2109509 elements for NACA 2412 and 2258962 elements for NACA 2412 with internal passage. Calculations were done for various Mach numbers by varying the angle of attack constant for above mentioned turbulence model. The flow …

Experimental Investigation of Lift forNACA 2412 Airfoil without Internal Passage with NACA 2412 Airfoil with Internal Passage in a Subsonic Wind Tunnel
Abstract: Wind tunnel experiments were carried out in a subsonic wind tunnel in Fluid Mechanics Laboratory at MITCOE, Pune. The objective of this research was to compare the experimental coefficient of lift and drag for a NACA 2412 airfoil with that for NACA 2412 airfoil with internal passage. Both the airfoils were of same dimensions and profile. The chord length (c) was 100 mm and the span (b) was 100 mm. …

A Computational Study of Lift and Drag Characteristics for NACA 4415 and NACA 2412 Aerofoils
Abstract: The performance of an aerofoil is crucial in designing wind turbine blades, aircraft wings, and other aerodynamic surfaces. This project presents a comparative analysis of two widely used aerofoil profiles, NACA 4415 and NACA 2412, to study their lift and drag characteristics under different flow regimes. The aerofoil geometries were developed using the NACA four-digit notation and modeled in ANSYS Design Modeler. Numerical simulations were conducted in ANSYS Fluent for …

Modelling and Analysis of Morphing Wing Structure for Variable Camber
Abstract: This study explores the modelling and analysis of a morphing wing with variable camber configurations to observe its aerodynamic characteristics compared to conventional form. The morphing wing is the concept where the shape of the wing is altered mid-flight based on different phases of flight to improve its aerodynamic characteristics. Morphing wing structure designs such as the corrugated and FISHBAC designs were considered for this analysis. The NACA 2412 airfoil …
