Beginner in ANSYS/CFX
 
Dear friends,

Hi! I am Nishant and I am new to this website as well as ANSYS. I have tried out about 10-12 models in Ansys structural, and I was very proud I could accomplish meshing and solutions. Now I am trying Ansys CFX module.

The thing is, I am designing an ultralight aircraft wing of specification NACA 4415. Can anybody explain me how to analyse this wing profile in ansys to obtain lift and drag? I need all the basic instructions right from material property settings to element type selections. Also, how do I setup the flow of air in ansys? If it is not possible in ansys, which other software might I be able to use? Lastly, can anybody suggest me any ebook on ansys/cfx that i may be able to obtain easily? I really hope somebody can be of help here.

Thanking you for your time,

Nishant.

CFX can do the model you are talking about. CFX comes with an extensive range of tutorials, and even more area available on the CFX-Community webpage (on www.ansys.com). That is the place to start.
