Airfoil coefficients data with active flap angles
Posted: Wed Sep 07, 2016 10:21 am
Hello Everyone,
I'm working on Adaptive Trailing Edge Flap Aerodynamic model(ATEFlap). I'm using the report from DTU on this model as reference. I have implemented the preprocessor required for the ATEFlap model in a objected oriented programming language. I have airfoil data for one aifoil with active trailing edge flaps to verify my preprocessor code. However, I want more such data from other airfoils with trailing edge flaps. I did some research on generating such data and have found a paper "Active Aerodynamic Blade control Design for Load Reduction on Large Wind Turbines". In this paper they have mentioned ARC2D and CFD tools to generate such data. ARC2D is a commercial software and I'm not too good with CFD. Is there any other way I could generate such data. Any kind of help would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Chaitanya
