NACA2412 Tutorial in ANSYS Fluent (Student Version) - Lift, Drag, Angle of Attack

In this tutorial I will conduct the analysis of a NACA2412 Airfoil using ANSYS fluent student version. I will also show how to change the angle of attack of the airfoil, and how that affects the simulation & results.
