Abstract

The analysis of the performance of aerodynamic airfoils leads to optimized approaches regarding the pre-design of fixed and rotating lifting surfaces, with implications on the global characteristics and performances of aircraft. The 2D aerodynamics of the airfoils provides indications on the aeromechanical behavior of the selected geometric elements, which may come as constructive solutions depending on the typology of the missions and the initial requirements of the project. The article provides a scrutiny of and certain educational perspectives on the Clark YH profile analysis, using freeware tools (Javafoil, Profiles and XFLR5).
