I recently made this video to show how our 3DFoil software package can be used to analyze an L-hydrofoil. 3DFoil is based on a vortex lattice...
L Hydrofoil Video I recently made a video to show how 3DFoil can be used to analyze an L Foil. The url for the video is:...
With the actual airfoil data from Tom Speer (thanks!), the 3DFoil (http://www.hanleyinnovations.com/3dfoil.html) results are adjusted to: Lift...
I did not have the exact airfoil on file but modified E817 to match angle for zero lift. 3DFoil produced the following results: @ 8m/s and AOA...
Hi Mikko. Stallion 3D has a capability for analyzing the Navier-Stokes but currently only for laminar flows (low Re). With the inviscid...
This is a quick run on Stallion 3D with about 630,000 cells (Euler solver). @8 m/s and AOA = 4 deg Lift = 439 N Side = 431 N Pressure Drag =...
The strut should also contribute to the drag (as modeled in the simulation) since it will produce a side force (due to the cambered section)....
