PC2

v4.3.2

PlanformCreator2 (PC2) is an app for designing wing planforms, with a focus on model planes.

Planform Design

  • Define a planform based on a chord distribution and a reference line along wing span
  • Import image of an existing wing as a background image for design
  • Add wing sections with fixed position or relative chord length
  • Define flaps hinge line and flaps
  • Export planform as DXF for use in CAD

Airfoils and Polars

  • Assign airfoils to wing sections and edit them using the AirfoilEditor
  • Generate blended airfoils for intermediate wing sections ('strak')
  • View polars of the airfoil based on xfoil polar generation

Wing Analysis

  • Auto paneling of the planform as preparation for aerodynamic calculation
  • VLM based lift calculation
  • Determine critical sections where cl_max of airfoils will be reached
  • Export wing definition to Xflr5 and FLZ_vortex for further analysis

Quick Start

  • Python package: pip install planformcreator2, then run planformcreator2.
  • Linux/macOS note: for polar generation and full analysis, compile and install worker (see Xoptfoil2 installation).

More information is available in the project repository: PlanformCreator2 on GitHub.
