Hi everyone,

after reading Peter Lyu's article "How Do I Comupte Lift and Drag?" I have several questions. I would like to create a simple water turbine referring on the NACA airfoil. So the example is in 2D and I did the line integration to get the total stress.

  • It is no problem to get the total stress in x and y direction, but is it possible to get the composition of every component?
  • If it possible to get more values, how do I get the pressure force for every part of the airfoil?
  • Is it possible to illustrate the results in a graphic?

Thanks in advance for your answers. Kind regards and merry christmas Katherina Göhler
