Now i want to estimate its lift through CFD, since I can't any good maths for predicting Low Reynold Number lift. can any any body tell me that how will i simulate the propeller effects on my R/c plane. The data i have is the prop diameter, RPM adn Power. Which B.C should i use and how to model that condition in my geometery! I am Using Gambit 2.4 and Fluent 6.3!
