Does anyone know how to process XFOIL commands through MALTAB? I am able to open the program through the !shell command, but how does one enter the commands in MATLAB for execution in XFOIL.

I know this is an old question, but in case anyone needs to do this...
You have to write a text file of inputs, which have on each line what you would enter into the command prompt. Then run that file with the shell command into XFoil. I ran this first: Code:
fid = fopen('XFoil_inputs.dat', 'wt'); fprintf(fid,['naca ' airfoil '\r']); % load this profile fprintf(fid,'ppar\r'); % enter panelling parameters menu fprintf(fid,['n 280\r']); % change the number of panels from 140 (default) to 280 (maximum) fprintf(fid,'\r'); % carriage return fprintf(fid,'\r'); % carriage return fprintf(fid,'gdes\r'); % enter the geometry design menu fprintf(fid,'flap\r'); % create a flap ... Code:
naca 23012 ppar n 280 gdes flap ... |
