Description: Flowform with a molar shape
Created by: Harald Prinzler
Creation date: november 07, 1998
Last change: june 09, 1999
All values are related to the base line of the profile (lower leading edge
to trailing edge = 100). With the given datas you should calculate all
pieces of the kite depending on your chosen base line.
The length of the base line should be 2 metres or more. For shorter base
lines the maximum height of the profile could be too small.
The width of the chamber should be between 10 and 15. In my pencil sketch I
used 10. So, the area of the bottom surface has a height of 100 and a width
of 80.
The trailing edges of the chambers C4 are open. Cut the surfaces between
profiles P4 and P5 between the ends of the profiles. All other trailing
edges are closed.
The distances for air flow holes on the surfaces are related to the leading
edges. On top side use the upper leading edge, on bottom side use the lower
leading edge.
The length of the bridle lines are calculated for a chamber width of 10.
For other chamber width, take 2.5 times the width of the kite for B1 and
use Pythagoras to calculate the length of the other bridle lines.

P_ Profile number
P1 Outer profiles, no vents
P5 Center profile, use the profile P4 and cut the trailing edge at
x-position 50 (Height at trailing edge is not zero).
C_ Chamber number
K_ Keel number
B_ Bridle line number
Xp X-position from leading edge to trailing edge. 0 is the lower
leading edge.
Yp Y-position from profile base line to maximum profile height.
