Hello viewers,
I have the slice of a wing profile for which I'd like to save the cvs data for Cp values. In order to make my gnuplot visual clearer, I am looking for a way to split the data according to the normals direction, facing upwards and facing downwards, thus allowing a separation of the extrados and the intrados for some complex wing shape (a split filter doesn't work for some cases). I tried by adding a GenerateSurfaceNormals on top of my slice, then CellCenters and finally Glyphs, but these are all pointing in the same direction (z in my case). Is anyone have a tip for separating extrados and intrados, maybe with Calculator... Many thanks! |

What you can try is to use two "Threshold" filters on your wing profile slice to separate extrados and intrados with the use of the pressure information. Cheers |
