Hi..
I am trying to mesh a wing with sinusoidal leading edge..
My problem is that the mesh does not follow the profile of the leading edge UNLESS i give very high bunching as seen near the tip of the wing below..

As you move towards the root of the wing, the mesh is less concentrated and it does not follow the profile..

I need a way to make the mesh follow the profile inspite of lesser number of nodes( currently the node spacing near the root is 0.002 and if i have such spacing throughout the span, total elements become more than 10 million which is not reasonable for me..)

The above link contains the block and tin files

thanks....
