INSIDE THE WORKSPACE
UNIT 2 · AERODYNAMIC FORCES
L = ½ ρ v² S CL
Textbook-depth lessons, built around your project.
Is my mesh fine enough near the trailing edge?
AdvisorRun a refinement study: halve the cell size and compare CL. If it barely moves, you’re converged.
An advisor that knows your project, your readings, and your progress.
Import PDFs, highlight, and keep notes beside the source.
Week 6 — CL vs. angle of attack
stall near 15° → check against reference data
Text, sketches, and equations in one research notebook.
Checkpoints unlock each step, so progress is real.
