Propeller Fluent Analysis

zizie · May 12, 2016, 01:05

Hi everyone,

I'm vry new to ANSYS Fluent.
So basically I would want to run analysis to determine the aerodynamic properties of a 10 x 7 inch propeller blade.
I've some questions:
1) Is it possible to run static propeller analysis?
2) If I would want to make it moving at certain RPM, how do I do it?
3) How do I run the analysis to determine the thrust and power coefficient of the blade?
4) Do I run it with laminar or turbulence? Since my Reynolds number at 75% is 50669 at 3000rpm.

Do enlighten me please.

Thank you in advance

I am interested in the same thing as asking zize with the idea of extending a multirotor aircraft.

I try to up the thread to see if anyone can help .

Thank you very much.
