Create File for XFLR5 analysisΒΆ

If you use this section, it will automatically be created in xflr5/ directory with a .xwimp file and profiles in .dat format to use in an aerodynamic analysis with the XFLR5 program. The details of how to do it are explained here: http://www.laboratoridenvol.com/info/lep2xflr5/lep2xflr5.html Unfortunately with XFLR5 we cannot model paragliders with profile rotations in the Z angle, nor single skin paragliders. CFD programs must be used for this type of paraglider.
