Modeling a 3D wing with MECAFLUX and SOLIDWORKS

 

Here's a little tutorial to create a 3D wing using the profile editor mecaflux and solidworks.

Since the export function files aerodynamic or hydrodynamic profile has been added to MECAFLUX,

It becomes very easy to create the 3D model of your profile.

So you can in seconds create a 3D wing in solidworks with MECAFLUX.

1 Open Editor Profile tab drag and lift of mecaflux and editing a profile with the editor naca For example ...

profile with the editor naca

Click on export to solidworks:

Enter the width of the wing (length chord)

And enter the length of the wing:

If SolidWorks is installed on your PC,it will be launched and your wing will be built:

 

Well it's true that now there is no merit anymore in creating wings, fins or foiler (lol).

Simply calculating performance with mecaflux to assess the size and speed needed to create the desired lift and then export the profile to solid works.

Be careful though, the loss of lift at the wing tips are not taken into account.

For a wing with a length of 10 to a width of 1 count approximately 15% loss of lift compared with results MECAFLUX.

For a wing with a length of 10 to a width of 5 count approximately 30% loss of lift compared with results MECAFLUX.

Do not test the performance of your system on a living being, even if you don't like him (it's bad!) without safety testing beforehand.
