Temperature & Humidity
Apologies if I have overlooked information within the QBlade documentation, but is it possible to consider fluid temperature and/or humidity levels within the flow domain?
Hello Luke,
the variables related to these properties are the environmental variables air density and kinematic viscosity.
The air density influences the forces that are generated by the airfoils, the kinematic viscosity influences the Reynolds number, and thereby the lift and drag characteristics of the airfoil.
BR,

Hi David,
Thank you for getting back to me. My project supervisor was interested in whether the temperature and humidity levels could be varied directly as they relate to some of their research. I’ll let him know that it isn’t possible through QBlade.
Thanks for the info,
Luke
