Airfoil Measurements

Overview

Airfoil measurements

An airfoil or aerofoil is the cross-sectional shape of a wing; the blade of a propeller rotor or turbine; or sail as seen in cross-section. With the 3D inspection software, the standard characteristics of an airfoil profile can be extracted from a 3D scan. Such as; the leading edge, trailing edge, camber line, chord length, stagger, maximum thickness, lift coefficient, position, span, and angle of attack. The 3D scan data is imported into an inspection software. We can use the same CAD model and two reference planes, as well as the same organizing tags that will display all the airfoil inspection elements that were already created. We can use the Airfoil Analysis feature to measure the airfoil profile parameters. Check the nominal coordinate system, the datums, and the parameters involved in all the airfoil measurement constructions. The output 3D CAD report is generated in the desired format.
