Dear all,

I have been trying to mesh this airfoil in 2D after I did the youtube tutorial a couple of times.

This blade is from an automotive cooling fan.

Here's the profile




Here it is after the O-grid and splits



Then I thought I could just collapse both edges and blocks at the tips similar to the sharp trailing edge from the tutorial.

I did and I'm getting this..




From the last picture, the 2 airfoil sides merge to one after I collapse both blocks at the edges..
Am I missing something or is what I am trying to do fundamentally wrong?

I would appreciate some help..

Thanks,
T
