To calculate the location of the center of pressure for an airfoil section in low-speed, incompressible flow, we can use the following formula:
Where:-
is the location of the center of pressure-
is the coefficient of lift-
is the position of the aerodynamic center (usually given or can be found in tables for the specific airfoil)-
is the coefficient of the moment about the quarter-chord axis-
is the aspect ratio of the wingGiven:-
-
Assuming typical values for an NACA 4412 airfoil at an angle of attack of
:-
(where
is the chord length)-
Let's assume the chord length
is 1 (for simplicity, you can adjust this based on the actual chord length).
Now, plug in the values:
Calculate the numerator:
So,
Finally,
Therefore, the location of the center of pressure is approximately
chord lengths from the leading edge.
