About Sail & Airfoil Flow Simulator
Simulate sailboat airfoil aerodynamics with real-time flow analysis.
This app uses a vortex panel method to model 2D potential flow around thin airfoils — ideal for analyzing mainsail and jib performance. Great for sailors, designers, engineers, or students.
Features:
• Interactive sail and airfoil shaping
• Real-time lift coefficient and circulation output
• Adjustable angle of attack and camber
• Visual streamline flow and panel pressure plots
• Compare individual and combined sail behavior
• Lightweight and offline — no data tracking
Use it for:
• Sail tuning and optimization
• Learning airfoil theory and flow interaction
• Understanding lift generation on rigged sails
Whether you're a sailboat racer, fluid mechanics student, or curious engineer, Airfoil Analysis helps you explore aerodynamic forces with clarity and precision.
