Airfoil Parameterization Optimization

Mar 2023 - Jun 2023

Description: Airfoil Parameterization Optimization was made using X Foil, Python and MATLAB to suggest airfoils based on set parameters such as camber location, thickness and CdA. The algorithm used contains a huge database of NACA and other airfoils with their parameters. After a list of suggested airfoils is presented from the chosen parameters as well as ranked using the ranging parameter, Python and X Foil are used to do in depth calculation on a singular airfoil and gives out the Cl, Cd at various angles of attack to get an even more rigorous solution and choose the best suited airfoil.
