Hello all
I am trying to import NACA airfoil coordinates in ICEM .I used .txt format file and it dint work.Can anybody walk me through the steps to export coordinates in ICEM CFD window (or) format type which is compatible with the software.Thanks all
Hello,
Copy the x, y, and z of all points (if it is 2D, you need to use 0 as z), and then follow: select Geometry/ screen select/ choose ... then the list editor will be popped out, paste all points coordinate here, then close/ ok /apply!.

hello
Firstly you must prepare a xyz data file, after that, you will call this file by ICEM as follow
1- Open ICEM
2- go to file - Import geometry - formatted point data and browse your file.dat
apply
Alternatively, you can generate geometry in any modelling software like Solidworks, catia etc.. and save file as STEP/IGES format and import that geometry in ICEM CFD.
Following video explains how to import STEP/IGES geometry in ANSYS ICEM CFD
