#Naca 4412 airfoil series#
NACA 6, 7, and 8 series have been designed to highlight some aerodynamic characteristics. Before learning about the nomenclature of the NACA 4-digit airfoil let’s learn about some basic airfoil terminologies. NACA 7 and 8 airfoils can be described in similar fashion. This study takes into account NACA 4412 and NACA 4424 which are cambered airfoils. The next number, 4, indicates the design lift coefficient of 0.4, and the last two digits (12) again mean the maximum thickness in the percentage of chord. The comparison was done on the basis coefficient of lift and coefficient of drag. The effects of fluid flow have been studied over the two airfoils 4412 and S1223 through computational fluid dynamics. In this airfoil, the first digit (6) indicates the series for which the minimum pressure's position in tenths of a chord is indicated by the second digit (5), the subscript (2) indicates the range of lift coefficient of 0.2 above and below the design lift coefficient where a low drag can be maintained, in this case, 2. NACA (national advisory committee for aeronautics) airfoils have been generated according to the NACA standards. The illustration shows a NACA airfoil-NACA 65 2-415 a NACA 6-digit airfoil. That means that this airfoil has a maximum camber of about 20% of the chord located at 15% of the chord from the leading edge (3/10 divided by 2) and is 12% thick. Detailed studies of separated boundary layers on airfoils and downstream wakes are limited in number and can be divided according to the measuring. In a NACA 5-digit series (NACA 23012), the first digit (2) means the approximate camber in the percentage of chord, the second digit (3) indicates twice the position of the maximum camber in tenths of a chord, the third digit is either 0 or 1 and distinguishes the type of mean camber line, and the last two digits (12) give the thickness in the percentage of chord. The aerodynamic properties of NACA 4412 airfoil section have been investigated in a number of previous studies, such as Wadcock (1978), Nakayama (1985), Badran (1993) and Badran and Bruun (2003).

The illustration shows a NACA 2412 airfoil. Pressures were simultaneously measured in the variable-density tunnel at 64 orifices distributed over the midspan section of a 5 by 30-inch rectangular model of the N. In a NACA 4-digit airfoil, the first digit expresses the camber in the percentage of chord, the second digit gives the location of the maximum camber point in tenths of a chord, and the last two digits give the thickness in the percentage of arc.
