Profili is a software developed to help the 'do it yourself' modellers. This new version can assist you in: searching for the right airfoil for your application, creating new airfoils, analysing the airfoil aerodynamic ,drawing, plotting or printing all the ribs for a trapezoidal or elliptical wing or the foam cutting templates.

New features of the Professional version:-

* Deleted the -8 ~ +13 degrees range limit in Alpha.
* A lower step for Alpha is also accepted.
* New 'Power Factor' and Xtr top and button graphs included in polar analysis.
* NCrit e Mach number management on polar analysis, including these parameters in the polar db.
* Direct management for NCrit e Mach number in type 4 polar analysis.
* Now you can redefine the default values of Re number.
* Full management of airfoils and polars libraries. Now you can create, modify, delete, clone libraries, and copy-move airfoils and polars.
* Now, included in the Pro package, you can find 5 libraries, all containing more then 2.300 airfoil:
* A library without precomputed polars, the default one.
* A library with precomputed polars with NCrit = 6.
* A library with precomputed polars with NCrit = 9.
* A library with precomputed polars with NCrit = 11.
* A library with precomputed polars with NCrit = 13.
* You need about 700MB to install all the libraries, so you can select to install only some of them. Two computers worked for more then 2.000 hours to complete the computing of all these polars.
* Full management of MDES, GDES, QDES and PPAR functions menu of XFoil.
* Three functions to generate new airfoils:
* Generate a mix of two airfoils using different FRONT-REAR mix values.
* Generate a new airfoils using UPPER/LOWER parts as a MIX of different ones.
* Generate a new airfoil using external SHAPE and CAMBER line as a MIX of different airfoils.
* A new function to evaluate the external roughness of the airfoil, and two function to smooth it.
* All the features included in the new 2.14 base version, like polars graph scaling etc..
* And a great new feature in Version 2.15 Professional, Wing Panels management!!!
