Hi all,

I need to run a CFX simulation of a wing. I want to create my wing by importing airfoil points into modeler and then connecting the airfoils using a skin. But I am having trouble in importing the airfoil points into ANSYS modeler. I can't find a format that works.

Do any of you have some previous experience with importing airfoils into ANSYS modeler from a text file?
If yes, could you please tell me what format to use and how to format it please?


Thank you all.
