Not in FLUENT
Angle of attack is not known?
Just need to know the normal force and tangetial force from which aoa has to be calculated
in that case aerfoil should be aligned with axis, like chord line should be along the axis, then only ur answer will be correct bro
Using Lift ,drag and angle of attack calculate the normal and axial force.
Get the lift and drag value in all points in xl sheet and use the relation between lift and normal force along with angle of attack..
bro, Angle of attack is unknown, as the blade is twisted and tapered
In the Ansys post-processor you need first to define a local coordinate system that is aligned with the fluid flow, then use the force function to find the lift and drag forces in this case.
hi ijaz. sorry for interrupting.i've been facing the same problem here. in my case, it's an airfoil in internal turning pipe flow. and since it's a turning pipe, flow is definitely not aligned to the axis. i do know the angle of attack though, but i dont know how to define the value of vector flow coming for drag force. do you have any idea?
