Library and command line REPL with plotting to do simple inviscid hess-smith panel code.

Features include:

  • Cheap and shameless xfoil ripoff for relp/plotting interface

  • Naca 4-series support with Gauss-Newton paneling

  • Broken UIUC database integration (type "uiuc [foilname]")

  • Haskeline interface with tab-completion (oooh)

  • Single and multi-element airfoils

  • Inviscid, incompressible, 2-dimensional flow only

To get started, do cabal install or whatever, then run the "hfoil" binary.

Things to try: "naca 2412", "alfa 4", (hit enter before entering another airfoil), "load [filename]", "uiuc e330"
