Abstracts: The problem has been taken up to find the aerodynamic characteristics of bi-convex airfoil. The Bi-Convex airfoils are used at supersonic and hypersonic speeds. The aerodynamic characteristics will be obtained for different thickness values for the Bi-Convex airfoil. At different flow regimes the Numerical analysis of the bi-convex airfoilwill be done and the results so obtained will be compared with the Analytical values obtained based on the expansion and oblique shockwave theory. The numerical analysis will be carried out using ANSYS - FLUENT.
