CFView - Pressure distribution along an airfiol

Ko_Shine · October 6, 2018, 09:40

Hello,

Please allow me to ask a simple question. How can I plot a pressure distribution along an airfoil at a specific span location? I created a blade-to-blade surface and plotted a Cartesian plot along the solid but it plotted along the blade. What would I do if I want to plot along an airfoil?

Thank you.

Best regards,
Shine

Hi Shine,

You can open your solution in the STM view and create a Cartesian plot on a section where the coordinates defining the section reflect the span position at which you want to see the pressure profile (e.g. 0.5 for mid-span).

Hi Colinda,

Thanks a lot for that. I can now plot the pressure distribution.

Many thanks,
Shine
