Abstract:
The traditional process of aerodynamic design is carried out manually by trial-and-error method. This process requires a large number of design engineers working alongside a huge budget. In order to overcome this manual method, the technologically driven software design using CFD will provide a cost effective optimal design method.
Software products for automatic aerodynamic design are intended to solve the basic problem of preliminary aerodynamic design: to develop a configuration with as low a

    INTRODUCTION Research on advanced-technology’ airfoils for general aviation applications has received considerable attention over the past decade at the NASA Langley Research Center. The initial emphasis in this research program was on the design and testing of turbulent-flow airfoils with the basic objective of producing a series of airfoils which could achieve higher maximum lift coefficients than the airfoils in use on general aviation airplanes at that time. For this series of airfoils, it was assumed that the flow over the entire airfoil would be turbulent, primarily because of the construction techniques in use (mostly riveted sheet metal). A summary of this work is presented in reference 1. While these new NASA low-speed airfoils did achieve higher maximum lift coefficients, the cruise drag coefficients were essentially no lower than the earlier NACA four- and five-digit airfoils. Accordingly, the emphasis in the research program has been shifted toward natural-laminar-flow (NLF) airfoils in an attempt to obtain lcwer cruise drag coefficients while retaining the high maximum lift coefficients of the new NASA airfoils. In this context, the term “natural-laminar-flow airfoil” refers to an airfoil which can achieve significant extents of laminar flow (?30-percent chord) solely through.’ favorable pressure gradients (no boundary-layer suction or cooling). Research on natural-laminar-flow airfoils dates back to the 1930’s at the National Advisory Ccmmittee for Aeronautics (NACA). (See ref. 2.) The work at NACA was culminated with the 6-series airfoils (ref. 3). The 6-series airfoils were not generally successful as low-drag…
