Streamline plot near wall of aerofoil

ttu004 · April 8, 2014, 02:54

Hi there

I am trying to plot streamline on an aerofoil in CFX post. As indicated in figure attached, the streamline plot has started from a line which is offset from the leading edge. However, as shown, the streamline does not fully resolve the near wall region of the aerofoil.

Could anyone tell me how to fix this problem?

Thanks
Tom

Have a look at the streamline termination parameters. One of them is probably terminating the streamline early.

Hi; You can use a Surface streamline.
