How I did a CFD Analysis on Blended Winglets in FreeCAD

[@norliegh]

Hey Walker! You're doing an incredible job explaining CFD. Also! You can change the units to your liking in freecad preferences (look it up!). Thank you for making these available, I really agree that information like this should be readily available.

[@WalkerWeathers]

Good to know on the units in the preferences. That will make things less cumbersome. Thank you

I use XFLR5 airfoil analysis and CFD. It is opensource as well. I made like one video on it for a demo haha. It will graph Cd, Cp etc. Its worth looking into. I am watching your videos because i have never used CFD software, even though i understand the math very well, i just have not applied it yet. So hopefully i can understand what you are doing haha

Hi there, enjoyed your previous video and wanted to try the same in ansys and compare results. From this video I assume you made it on your own, but is there a possibility for you to share your solidworks file or mention where you got the dimensions from? Also have to mention that its pretty nice you made this tutorial, I would have appreciated it a few years ago.

[@WalkerWeathers]

Yes, I made the models myself, so they’re not perfect. I don’t want to put them up publicly out of respect for Shirl Dickey’s ERACER plans, but for those willing to go through the extra step of asking, I’m happy to share. Send me an email at [e-mail] so I have yours and I can send the wings or the whole aircraft.

Hi Walker, thank you for the video. How do I go about checking Courant numbers in Free Cad?

anyone know how to fix "/bin/bash: line 1: cd: C:\Users\mzdra\AppData\Local\Temp\meshCase: No such file or directory" when meshing? I go to that location but there is a meshCase file so I don't know what the error is.
