    Hello, everyone. I want to analyse a Airfoil, in this case the airfoil is e422, with a chord of 297 mm. The problem is that I cannot download this data (e422-il_100%.dat).

    EPPLER 422 AIRFOIL

    I want to understand what I am doing wrong.
    Thank you in advance for your answers.

    The reason is that the end-of-line character used in your .dat file is "\r" instead of "\r\n" or "\n". It is not recognized by the Qt libraries.

      Thank you for your response. I intuitively understand what you are saying. But I don't understand how you found this error (or how you saw it).
      I solved this problem after your answer, also intuitively, I copied from the wrong dat file to the correct dat file and the program ran it.
      I don't know if there are other methods to solve this problem?

      Unfortunately I have another problem. After successfully loading the data that I have already submitted, the program did not analyse it.
      As I understand it, XFLR5 does not analyse wing profiles with chords of 1 to 100-200-300 mm and so on?

        To be more precise, the simulation is being carried out, but it has no answer.
