Abstract
An airfoil is a cross-section of a wing that is normal to the span of the wing. Generally, we
called it a two-dimensional view of the wing and play important role in the preliminary
design of an aircraft. The selection of an airfoil is primarily based on various parameter such
as thickness maintenance for structure and fuel, stall characteristics, lift and drag during
cruise and ease of design for the manufacturer. The most important key point in the selection
and design of an airfoil is to reach maximum pressure difference in top and bottom keeping
high aerodynamics efficiency and without getting flow separation. The inverse computational
method was mostly preferred for designing modern airfoil to get the desired parameter
mentioned above. The main objective of this review paper is to trace the data of various
airfoil which operate at different environmental condition, altering geometric parameter and
operating at different Reynolds number to optimize maximum lift coefficient with
maintaining high aerodynamics efficiency. The extensive data will also be useful for future
investigation and research purpose
