Abstract : Analysis of the two dimensional airfoil was done with the help of CFD Software. The target of the work is to
come across the most suitable turbulent model in calculation of Governing Equations. The Governing Equations were solved
using CFD software. Since two dimensional and three dimensional airfoil shows the equivalent result that is why the two
dimensional airfoil was used. NACA0012 airfoil is a non cambered airfoil and it is used in various aeronautical applications.
Flow on this airfoil was analysed for different angle of attack and compared practical data with simulated data for different
turbulent models. Calculations were done at low Reynolds number keeping a constant velocity for altered angle of attack.
During calculation grid independence test was done to show the accuracy of result by changing in grid size or nodes. As the
number of nodes increases, the lift coefficient is also increased. But as soon as we reached 102180 nodes, the lift coefficient
becomes stagnate.
