Why this curve

This is a NeuralFoil prediction from the stored profile coordinates and the selected flow condition, with AeroSandbox compressibility corrections. It is not a completed OpenFOAM calculation.

Prediction error has not been calibrated for this condition. No accuracy interval is claimed.

The compressibility correction is a low-fidelity estimate, not a resolved shock or compressible CFD solution.

Geometry fit: RMS error 0.04575% of chord; maximum error 0.2019%.
