Points (for spline) from file

[DMC80U]

Hello guys!

I’d like to construct a NACA profile via spline.
Therefore I’d like to get points from a .dat file.
What does the formatting in .dat have to be like?

Thanks in advance

Hello

It’s described in the documentation and context help:

Each point is described with its XYZ coordinates. The values are separated with tabulators or spaces.

There are 3 kinds of point files:
-sequence of points
-sequence of points with rake and curves
-series of points

Example of a sequence of points:

1.00000 0.00000 0.0

0.99655 0.00039 0.0

0.98649 0.00174 0.0

0.97049 0.00427 0.0

0.94916 0.00778 0.0

As already said, you’ll find other information about “points from file” in the documentation.
