Aerosense Layout Designer

Interactive Streamlit app for designing sensor layouts on blade geometries.

Installation

This project uses uv for dependency management. If you don't have uv installed:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

Then sync the project dependencies:

uv sync

Running the App

Start the Streamlit app with:

uv run streamlit run app.py

The app will open in your default web browser at http://localhost:8501.

Usage

1. Upload a blade geometry file (.dat or .txt) using the sidebar
2. Configure the wing dimensions (chord length in meters)
3. Set up sensor patches:
   • Number of patches
   • Position along the chord (0.0 to 1.0)
   • Surface side (pressure or suction)
   • Reference sensor index (0-23)
4. Click "Generate Layout" to visualize the sensor arrangement
5. Download the resulting image if needed

File Format

The blade geometry file should contain airfoil coordinates in a standard format (x,y pairs representing the airfoil shape).
