pysces.karman_trefftz_foil(xcenter=-0.1, ycenter=0, a=0.1, angle_deg=10, numpoints=32)¶

Return a Karman-Trefftz foil Body.

The Karman-Trefftz foil is a modified version of the Joukowski foil but with a nonzero interior angle — rather than a cusp — at the trailing edge. Refer to [R2] for details.

Parameters:

xcenter, ycenter, a : float.

The same as in joukowski_foil().

angle_deg : float

The interior angle, in degrees, at the trailing edge.

numpoints : int

Number of points along the boundary
