AIRFOIL DESIGN

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The main objective of this project is to propose a suitable airfoil for a reliable commercial aircraft based on Hydrogen propulsion systems. My Airfoil Design was a project developed in the IAG department of the University of Stuttgart for the Airfoil Design Seminar. Working together with the help of Dr. Lutz and the specific airfoil design software provided by the emeritus Dr. Richard Eppler I could gain a better insight about airfoil aerodynamics. The HC-5 Airfoil has been designed using an inverse engineering method that consisted on asessing and modifying the AF performance from the variation of its velocity profile
