Foil Utilities
On this page, skin thickness refers to 'T' as shown below.
- Maximum thickness of a foil is equal to the maximum thickness of the core plus twice the
thickness of the skin.
- The chord length of the foil is equal to the chord length of the core plus the thickness of the skin plus the taper of the
skin beyond the core (designated by '?' below).
I'll break my rule about not including links here - check out Martin
Hepperle's JavaFoil for
online foil analysis.
