      Hey! I've been here and there, you know. Busy with stuff outside of RUclips. But I'm working on videos so hopefully I don't disappear for too long next time.

    Bonjour, j'ai essayé de faire le programme avec tout les fichier télécharger et ils sont tous dans badFloil, je ne comprends pas pourquoi.
    Merci beaucoup pour votre aide

    Hi Josh, very interesting video. I'm working on some foam cutting software written in python. The software was originally written in python2 but I've now updated it to 3 and it works well. But I'm trying to add a value for the kerf of the hot wire and struggling with the math. I thought just adding a value to the Y after scaling the airfoil would do it but it doesn't. Looks ok at the trailing edge but once near the leading edge, it doesn't work well. Basically, I need an offset from the x,y coordinates. Wondered if you knew a way to do this.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi, I have this error:
    >> LOAD_AIRFOIL
    Not enough input arguments.
    Error in LOAD_AIRFOIL (line 28)
    fidAirfoil = fopen(['./Airfoil_DAT/' fileName '.dat']); % Open the airfoil data file
    How can I solve it?

      @@fabioli96 Correct. And then make sure that when you type the airfoil name that you want to load (the fileName variable), you don't include the file extension (.dat).

      I'm actually trying to deal with this right now. My site is built using WordPress, which is one of my least favorite things in the world. Every time it tells me to update a plugin, it crashes my site and it takes forever to fix it. Anyway, all my code is also on my GitHub: github.com/jte0419/Panel_Methods

    Great stuff! How are you going to use it? Will you perhaps use your 3d printer?

    • @JoshTheEngineer
      @JoshTheEngineer  5 лет назад +2

      Thanks! The main use of these past few videos is to get outside airfoils (non-NACA) into my panel methods code that I'll be going through in my upcoming videos. But I also thought it might be interesting to build a mini wind tunnel, print some airfoils, and see what kinds of lift values I can get to compare to the panel methods.

    Hey also can you make a video on mesh generation techniques?it will be help particularly elliptical grids

    • @JoshTheEngineer
      @JoshTheEngineer  5 лет назад

      I actually haven't coded any elliptic grid generation scripts, so at the moment I don't know it well enough to make a video about it. The only grids I use are fairly simple geometries, but I would eventually like to get more into grid generation. When the day comes that I feel comfortable enough with it, I'll definitely make a video!
