Göttingen 765: attempt 7 with museum measurements
Steve 'Squirrel' contributed the following data set. These coordinates were reportedely measured on a Me 163C, the existence of which I never heard! Where and how the measurements were done, is completely unknown to me. Steve refined this data set using CompuFoil software, and the results are shown on this page.
Analysis of the coordinates leads to the following characteristics:
- Thickness: 0.1440 @ 0.300
- Leading edge radius: n/a (to few data points)
- Camber: 0.0155 max @ 0.300, -0.0055 min @ 0.800
- Trailing edge angle: tbd
Contour data
(note: the coordinates are not smoothed to achieve mathematically smooth contours, without discontinuous curvatures)
