Detailed Description

Series-up based profile data - drag and lift coefficients computed as sum of cosine series.

Cd = sum_i(CdCoeff)*cos(i*AOA) Cl = sum_i(ClCoeff)*sin(i*AOA)

where: AOA = angle of attack [deg] converted to [rad] internally Cd = drag coefficient Cl = lift coefficient

Input in two (arbitrary length) lists:

CdCoeffs (coeff1 coeff2 ... coeffN); ClCoeffs (coeff1 coeff2 ... coeffN);
