Hi, I want to take this a step further and plot the spanwise lift distribution over the wing. Is there a way to integrate the Cp curves at each of these slices and plot the result versus spanwise slice location? Anyway, I found this video clear and informative, and I thank you for it. Cheers!
+tch204 Thanks for the question! Spanwise distributions are not something that are available in Tecplot 360 today. We may be developing a macro with that capability. You can sign up for Tecplot updates at www.tecplot.com/my/
Ah, figures! I spent quite some time playing with the scalar integration function but couldn't seem to get what I wanted. I eventually exported slice data and processed it with another program. Anyway, thank you for letting me know. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for any updates!
I've just created a short video and a couple macros to create Cp Plots and calculate spanwise lift distributions. You can download it via FTP here: ftp://ftp.tecplot.com/outgoing/CpPlot_and_Spanwise_Macro.zip.

@@tecplot Did you manage to add this function in the meantime?
@@ydkchance i am checking on this for you. Stay tuned!
