Airfoil Analysis using Varying Angles of Attack (AOA)
Using Study 4, I compared the Velocity and Pressure at varying angles of attack until the airfoil reached stall:
Velocity Graph, AOA 2
Pressure Graph, AOA 2
Velocity Graph, AOA 4
Pressure Graph, AOA 4
Velocity Graph, AOA 6
Pressure Graph, AOA 6
Velocity Graph, AOA 8
Pressure Graph, AOA 8
Velocity Graph, AOA 10
Pressure Graph, AOA 10
Velocity Graph, AOA 12
Pressure Graph, AOA 12
Velocity Graph, AOA 13
Velocity Graph, AOA 14
Pressure Graph, AOA 13
Pressure Graph, AOA 14
After a certain degree of AOA, the Lift begins to drop, also the COMSOL application would not compute after a certain point, therefore showing that the angle of stall has been reached
For this particular Airfoil, the angle of stall was 16 degrees
