How to see Scalar Force Datas?

September 20, 2005, 07:38

Hello everbody,

I` m working on a quasi-2D airfoil model. After computation, I want to calculate drag and lift coefficients. Therefore I need to get drag and lift forces. I can get total scalar forces (both in x and y directions) around the airfoil by GETWALL/SFTX and GETWALL/SFTY commands. But I couldn` t see them! StarCD just says "WALL ITEM SFTX STORED" and "WALL ITEM SFTY STORED". But I want to see the scalar values. How can I?

Use wplo instead of cplo for wall data.
