MultiElement Airfoils: Airfoil Icing &
Microtab Study
MultiElement Airfoils is an effecient tool for analyzing airfoil flows
under conditions of special interest. MultiElement offers quick insight into
these cases since grid generation is automatic and the solution is accurate
under the assumptions of the compressible Euler equations. The following
pictures feature airfoils subjected to microtab deployment and ice
accumulation.
