Flight has been a major part of the world since it was first
demonstrated by the Wright brothers in 1902. However, in depth
studies into the effects of airflow over wings didn't occur until
World War I .In an attempt to better understand what made a good
wing, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, henceforth
referred to as the NACA, was founded. In 1933 the NACA tested 78
airfoil shapes in their wind tunnels with the data being published
in Technical Report No. 460, "The Characteristics of 78 Related
Airfoil Sections from Tests in the Wind Tunnel." This report also
resulted in the creation of the four-digit scheme for defining the
basic geometry of the airfoil. This same naming scheme was then
used to define the other airfoil families, such as the five-digit
airfoils. CFD analysis can be done using many software packages.
FLUENT is one of it. FLUENT provides comprehensive modeling
capabilities for a wide range of incompressible and compressible,
laminar and turbulent fluid flow problems. FLUENT uses Finite
Volume Method for analyzing the Airfoil properties such as
coefficient of pressure, lift, drag etc
