This review paper explores how Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations can be used to analyze and improve designs for airfoils, the wing-shaped structures that generate lift. It focuses on NACA airfoils, a system categorized by numbers that define their aerodynamic properties. Using CFD, researchers can virtually test different NACA airfoils to see how well they generate lift, create drag, and behave when airflow stalls (disrupts). The paper also examines how factors like thickness, curvature (camber), and angle of attack influence these performances. By understanding these factors, engineers can choose the ideal NACA airfoil for various applications, from airplane wings to wind turbine blades.
