Abstract

This study shows what difference would be made to the aerodynamic characteristic with different thickness ratio of the same airfoil, Eppler 387, at low Reynolds number, at the angle of attack of $0^{\circ}$. Konkuk Univ.'s airfoil has a bigger thickness ratio than that of the original Eppler 387 airfoil. The reason for the thicker camber is a Pt 100 ohm heater mounted inside the Konkuk Univ.'s airfoil and this was assumed to make some differences to aerodynamic characteristic. The comparison of these two airfoils' CFD data, provided by EDSION_CFD, with real experiment that had been made in subsonic wind tunnel at Konkuk Univ. is done. A finer result would come out if the complement of the homogeneity of the wind tunnel's fluid is done in the future.
