As i was saying. Extrude (or use the sweep function in Gambit) your 2D mesh into 3D and u would have solve your problem. Cant be simpler than that.

Please read a few post back. About how to simulate a 2D effect for Airfoil. There is NO actual 2D simulation for CFX u will have to extrude it to 3D.

Same way. You can
(1) use the function calculator to find the average velocity on any wall,
(2) plot a chart of x and any velocity(u need to draw a line or poly line around the wall to do that). ...
