Rotor airfoils
Airfoils of all rotor blades (rotorBladesType), e.g. of main rotors, tail rotors and propellers. They are defined like wing airfoils, with the chord line along the x-axis; the element transformation of a blade section turns the chord line perpendicular to the radial x-axis of the blade. Rotor airfoils can also be referenced by other airfoil-based data, e.g. the aerodynamic performance maps of rotorcraft analyses.
