Simple simple airfoil mesher
Updated December 2019
Hi. I can only create O-meshes. If your airfoil has a very thin (or collapsing) trailing edge, the mesh might end up being really bad (it might work though). Let me know how this works out.
- default is naca0015, if you don't give any file
- data must be in TWO columns, x and y
- NO blank lines (check the last line, it can't be blank), it will FUBAR the mesh
- columns MUST be separated by a space - no tabs or anything
- data must start at the upper point of the TE, move forward and end on the lower TE
Example is shown below on this page.
Sorry for this crappy sketch:
