Matching the Lift in order to calculate the flap angle

      Hi everyone, I have a NACA 4410 profile which I have done an analysis at different AoA (parameterizing the AoA) to find the CL and the CD. Now I want another run but with a 2410 with flaps, matching the lift from the first analysis to get the flap angle to have the same LIft.

      For example I have the 4410 at 5° of AoA and I find that the CL is 0.93, now with the same CL I want to find the Flap angle (of 2410).

      How can I do ?
      Thanks in advance

      Hello Marco, 

      you can set up a parametric simulation with the AoA as your parameter using Workbench. Set a range values expected for the AoA and run through these points until you approach the desired value.

      Thanks for the reply, but my problem is related to the matching of the CL without going to trial and error also because for this project I have to do various simulations and it would take a lot. Would it be possible to have AoA as output variable matching the CL?
