We visited the Vertiport at the Osaka World Expo (thank you Orix Group) where we had the privilege of sitting inside the Hexa Lift eVTOL. We also got to fly it virtually in their simulator!

In this video, we compare the noise of a stock DJI propeller to the new Silent Sky design. Both the noise level and the high pitch frequency amplitude were reduced using a bio-inspired design with tubercles.

3D model of the BT-13: https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/aircraft/historic-aircraft/bt-13-vultee-valiant

In this video we mounted our 3D model of a wooden WW2 propeller onto a public 3D model of the BT-13 aircraft. We analyzed the difference in thrust, power and torque with an aircraft now in the wake of the propeller.

In this video, we used the 3D model of our wooden WW2 era propeller blade to run CFD simulations. We were able to analyze the propeller performance in function of the blade pitch angle and found different optima for max thrust and max efficiency.

In the next video, we'll be mounting this propeller on a full 3D model of a WW2 era aircraft!

Discover how we transformed a WW2-era wooden propeller blade into a detailed 3D model using photogrammetry. Follow our process as we clean up the model in Blender and reveal airfoil sections along the blade's length using ParaView. Stay tuned for a sneak peek at the full 3D CFD simulation analyzing thrust, torque, and aerodynamic performance. Perfect for aviation and aerodynamics enthusiasts!

Sample project: https://app.airshaper.com/simulations/naca0015-more-lift-full-morph

In this video, we apply aerodynamic shape optimization using the adjoint technique to a 3D NACA 0015 airfoil.

The method runs through a number of cycles, each containing:
- a primal run (normal CFD simulation of the aerodynamics)
- a dual run (adjoint simulation to link the lift improvement goal to the flow field)
- a sensitivity map calculation (to calculate how the surface should be morphed to increase lift)
- a morphing step to implement these suggestions. The morphing is applied to the volume & surface mesh directly
