WIP

This project is still Work In Progress.

Goal of the project

The goal of this project is to automate a lot of manual labour that's done in order to do a CFD simulation of an airfoil. This script creates the airfoil using the provided coordinates, creates the 3D model of it, creates a mesh for a CFD simulation using Altair's software.

Planned features

  • Load a file and create a 2D extrudable sketch in FreeCAD (enables it to be ran on HPC) - 30%
  • Create a 3D model from the 2D sketch - 10%
  • Export the file in the necessary format (STEP) - 5%
  • Create the mesh from the 3D model - 40%
  • Run a CFD simulation using the 3D model on HPC - 10%
  • Postprocessing of the results (CD/CL) - 5%
