How to plot pressure coefficient in CFX and how to export it to tecplot

Hi,

I want to obtain pressure coefficient in CFX as follows:

Then, I want to export this diagram to tecplot. Is it possible? How?

I am grateful that guide me about this case.

Thanks.

1) Put a line around your profile at the location you want. Maybe a polyline at the intersection of your airfoil surface and a X=0 plane or something.
2) File/export, then select the data you wish to export (pressure so you can calculate Cp) and include the XYZ location.
3) You might need to do some manual processing to get it into a format tecplot can handle.
