nikhiljohn New Member Nikhil Join Date: Jun 2011 Posts: 3 Rep Power: 14	I have an airfoil (2d) of chord length 1 meter. The length of the camber line is 1.06m. The cross sectional area (2d enclosed area) is 0.17 meters. What should I give as the reference area if fluent for getting the correct cl. Thanks everyone in advance for your help.
