When doing a lateral stability analysis with XFLR5 v6.35, there are two new values displayed: t2 and tau.
Just what are these and what do they represent? They are displayed for stability modes 1 and 4, with the frequency and damping factor displayed for modes 2 and 3.
The older versions of XFLR5 had the damping factor and frequency displayed for all the modes, which was nice because the mil spec for handling qualities used them. Is there a way to equate them? Or is there a new program setting somewhere that I missed?
