[Other] Swept Tapered Wing

moonser · May 10, 2012, 06:40

Hi guys I know that this is probably a basic question but I am massively struggling here.
I have to create a swept tapered wing in Ansys. I have the 2 airfoils coordinates and generated them in the geometry. I CANNOT seem to join them.

Could anyone shed some light on how I can do this to create a 3-D wing. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

yes you can create a swept wing. just import the co-ord data and by transforming the tip airfoil in the x direction as well as in z dirctn you can see your sweep profile. then join the leading edge and trailing edge points and after that you can create surface.this way you can create swept wing.
