CFD Prediction of Airfoil Drag in Viscous Flow Using the Entropy Generation Method
A new aerodynamic force of drag prediction approach was developed to compute the airfoil drag via entropy generation rate in the flow field. According to the momentum balance, entropy generation and its relationship to drag were derived for viscous flow. Model equations for the calculation of the lo...
