It has now become customary to develop profiles for wings and propellers for a given employment of the aircraft. This is possible because methods and computers are available to study an entire series of variants in comparatively short time. The basic viewpoints for profile design are presented. It is shown that laminarization has its advantages in almost all cases, including the design of a turbine blade and the design of the profile of an airliner. The requirements which profiles have to satisfy are discussed along with the possibilities for increasing lift on profiles.
