Eppler
Airfoil Design and Analysis Code
| The
code described in this paper has been developed over the past 45
years. It combines a conformal-mapping method for the design of
airfoils with prescribed velocity-distribution characteristics,
a panel method for the analysis of the potential flow about given
airfoils, and an integral boundary-layer method. It is very efficient
and has been successfully applied at Reynolds numbers from 30,000
to 50,000,000. A compressibility correction to the velocity distributions,
which is valid as long as the local flow is not supersonic, has
been incorporated into the code. |
