JavaFoil Description

Easily change airfoil components and make calculations JavaFoil is a free software that lets you calculate and change various airfoil components.JavaFoil is written in the Java programming language. The following two methods build the backbone of JavaFoil:· The potential flow analysis is done with a higher order panel method (linear varying vorticity distribution). Taking a set of airfoil coordinates, it calculates the local, inviscid flow velocity along the surface of the airfoil for any desired angle of attack.· The boundary layer analysis module steps along the upper and the lower surfaces of the airfoil, starting at the stagnation point. It solves a set of differential equations to find the various boundary layer parameters. It is a so called integral method. The equations and criteria for transition and separation are based on the procedures described by Eppler. Compared with CalcFoil, this module has been completely rewritten and cleaned up. Requirements: · Java 1.5 or later
