CFD analysis of ONERAM6 wing using OPENFOAM

Abstract

Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) is very important in the aviation industry. Especially it is critically effecting to the model analysis of aeronautical and Aerospace engineering filed. Nowadays lots of CFD software on the market. The main object of these project to validate OpenFOAM?, one of the leading CFD software in the world. The simulation was based on 0.8395 Mach number with Reynolds Number of 11.72 x 106 of air flow parameters over ONERA M6 wing section at 3.06 degrees angle of attack. The ONERA M6 wing especially using for the wind tunnel experiment since 1972 by NASA. SolidWorks model of ONERA M6 was used to generate computational mesh and CFD simulations were done with OpenFOAM. Finally by using simulated Coefficient of Pressure (Cp) data values and wind tunnel data values are compared for the validation.
