Workbench Tutorial – Flow Over an Airfoil, Page 1 ANSYS Workbench Tutorial – Flow Over an Airfoil Authors: Scott Richards, Keith Martin, and John M. Cimbala, Penn State University Latest revision: 17 January 201 1 Introduction This tutorial provides instructions for creating a fluid volume and mesh around a NACA 4314 airfoil and for analyzing the flow in FLUENT. It also shows how to use multiple fluid bodies and edge sizing to create a “c-mesh”. The entire meshed fluid field and a portion of the mesh near the airfoil are shown below. Generate data points that define the airfoil 1. Open an internet browser and go the the NACA 4 Digits Series Profile Generator at http://www.ppart.de/aerodynamics/profiles/NACA4.html . On some computers, Java may be disabled and the website won’t display properly. Check your browser’s settings if you are having trouble viewing the website. This site enables users to generate any 4314 standard NACA 4-digit 2D airfoil. 2. Adjust the top three sliders to create a non- symmetric 4314 airfoil. 3. Change # Points to “60” and Point Size to “4” so that the points are clearly visible. If too many points are used to define the airfoil, DesignModeler won’t be able to create the profile of the airfoil because the distance between adjacent points is too small. 4. Show Points, then highlight everything that appears in the window to the right of the sliders and copy it to the clipboard. In Windows Ctrl + A can
