Extract of the

Stuttgarter Profilkatalog I

Dieter Althaus

The "Stuttgarter Profilkatalog I" by Dieter Althaus and Franz Xaver Wortmann was published by Friedr. Vieweg & Sohn Verlag in 1981. It contains airfoils and wind tunnel tests from the Laminar Wind Tunnel of the Institut für Aerodynamik und Gasdynamik of the Stuttgart University. Since only analogue data processing instrumentation was available in the tunnel at that time, the polar diagrams for the airfoils were presented only as diagrams. In the meantime, most of these diagrms were digitized and the corresponding data are available in tabulated form. In addition, the coordinates of some airfoils were treated by smoothing processes.
Since the Vieweg Verlag plans no new edition of the catalogue, this supplement was put together. It contains the velocity distributions and the shapes of the airfoils and the polar diagrams of nearly all airfoils form the Stuttgarter Profilkatalog I. Of special interest for the user, however, are the coordinates for the airfoils and the digitized data for the polar diagrams, which are included as ASCII files on a CD-ROM.
A catalogue compiling the airfoils and wind tunnel tests in the Stuttgarter Laminar Wind Tunnel since 1972 has been published by Vieweg Verlag.


The manual includes contours, velocity distributions, and polar diagrams with the wind-tunnel measurements for the FX-airfoils.

The CD-ROM contains:
