I&rsquo;ve already created a polyline at the intersection of the blade with a plane at specific radial positions. However, when I plot this data in an XY chart, I&rsquo;m struggling to align the X-axis in the chordwise direction (from leading to trailing edge). <em>NB: The propeller blade is twisted toward the tip.<\/em>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 12pt;&#8221;&gt;Could someone guide me on how to properly set the X-axis of the chart to represent the chordwise direction?&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 12pt;&#8221;&gt;<strong>2) Thrust Distribution Plotting:<\/strong>&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 12pt;&#8221;&gt;I&rsquo;d like to plot the thrust (loading) distribution over the blade. Is there a function or method in ANSYS Fluent or CFD Post that would allow me to visualize thrust distribution along the blade or at specific sections of the blade? Any suggestions for achieving this would be greatly appreciated!&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&#8221;font-size: 12pt;&#8221;&gt;Thanks in advance for your
