Leading edge and trailing edge of an airfoil rotor blade -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

July 11, 2014, 00:07	Leading edge and trailing edge of an airfoil rotor blade	#1
Jun_Milan New Member Jun Milan Join Date: Jul 2013 Location: Montreal Posts: 13 Rep Power: 13	Hi all. I have the airfoils that consist a rotor blade (in 3D). Each airfoil contains 428 points approximatively which I have their cartesian coordinates (x,y,z). Because I am in 3D, I have difficulties finding for each airfoil, which point is the leading edge and which point is the trailing edge. Do yo have any suggestion please ? (I need this to prepare the file blade.curve for Turbogrid) Thank you very much for your help, Petro.
