UIUC AIRFOIL DATA MANUAL
But who wants to do all that manual labor?īetween open-source simulators, modelling tools, and 3D printable parts, there’s no excuse for sub-par aerodynamics these days. Indeed, this is what we’d do if we weren’t modelling in OpenSCAD anyway. If you have more elaborate needs, or want to design the foil yourself, you can always plot out the points, convert it to a DXF and extrude. Champaign has put together an excellent database of airfoil shapes. Making a NACA-profile wing that’s 120 mm wide and 250 mm long is as simple as airfoil_simple_wing(, wing_length=250) UIUC Airfoil Database S805A Airfoil x/c y/c 1.00000: 0.00000: 0.98999: 0.00155. If your needs aren’t very fancy, and you just want something with less drag, you might also consider ’s very simple airfoil generator, also for OpenSCAD. While he originally wrote the utility to make the blades for a blower for a foundry, he’s also got plans to try out some 3D printed wind turbines, and naturally has a nice collection of turbine airfoils as well. ’s web-based utility has scraped the fantastic UIUC airfoil database and does the hard work for you.

You’re working on a project that needs to move air or water, or move through air or water, but your 3D design chops and/or your aerodynamics knowledge hold you back from doing the right thing? If you use OpenSCAD, you have no excuse for creating unnecessary turbulence: just click on your favorite foil and paste it right in.
