General description

The goal of this project to compute the forces (drag and lift) and the pressure field applied on an airfoil using three different methods: Experimental, theoretical and numerical.
The experimental method consist on measurement in the wind tunnel of Hepia, made by a student of this school. The theoretical approach is made with XFOIL, a program developed for foil analysis. Finally, the numerical simulations are made on Fluent, an Ansys module for CFD. 

Tasks
