NACA-2412

This work was originally intended to perform adjoint optimization technique to optimize the shape of the aerofoil for maximum lift and minimum drag. But unfortunately my simple work station couldn't handle the load and the simulation time was painfully long. Hence, it became a simple steady simulation.
