Xoptfoil

Airfoil optimization using the highly-regarded Xfoil engine for aerodynamic calculations. Starting with a seed airfoil, Xoptfoil uses particle swarm, genetic algorithm and direct search methodologies to perturb the geometry and maximize performance. The user selects a number of operating points over which to optimize, desired constraints, and the optimizer does the rest.

If you are like the rest of our user community, your IT team is busy. With pressure to deliver on-time projects, you don’t have a lot of time to spend making your management tools work. You need network monitoring tools that work for you. You want tools that makes it easy to find performance issues before your users do and resolve them before they impact the business. That’s why tens of thousands of customers around the world love WhatsUp Gold.

Features
  • Supports up to 30 operating points during optimization and multiple user-defined constraints
  • Each operating point has a specified lift coefficient or angle of attack, Reynolds number, Mach number, and flap deflection
  • Flap angle for each operating point can be used as design variables
  • Different optimization objectives (minimize drag, maximize glide slope, minimize sink rate, or maximize lift) can be set at each operating point
  • Each operating point is assigned a relative weight (importance) by the user
  • Available constraints include thickness, camber, curvature reversals, pitching moment, and trailing edge wedge angle
  • Currently included optimization algorithms: particle swarm, genetic algorithm, and Nelder-Mead simplex algorithm
  • The optimizer is robust: many checks for reasonable geometry and Xfoil consistency in place
  • Parallel version available
  • Xfoil engine accurately predicts transition, separation bubbles, and stall at low Reynolds numbers
