    Hello guys!
    I'm running simulations for some wing configurations. The airfoils are S1223 and scanned variations of it. I can make many angles of attack converge, but the polar ones are not shown in the graphs on the right. There are results but they don't appear and I can't export them for treatment either. So, I would like your help.
    The project file is attached.
    Best Regards,

    You need polars for multiple reynoldsnumbers to perform a wing analysis, otherwise xflr5 can't interpolate the 2D results for the 3D analysis. Even if your wing operates at "exactly" (there is no such thing) the set reynoldsnumber of the 2D analysis.

    Cheers,
    Stefan

    double post (again, when will sourceforge fix this...)

    I simulated for values above and below the Reynolds that I want and now it appears. Thank you very much! I went to look now, the Cp graphs don't appear. Did I simulate 2D for a few Reynolds?
