Hi Nek's,

I'm working on an accelerated flat plate in 3D.
I'm trying to calculate the lift but only on a plan (streamwise 
direction) of the plate in order to make the curve C_L (spanwise direction).
I already tried several methods but non of them worked.
For example, I use the routine hpts() to interpolate the value of 
pressure and gradient velocity on the points of the plate and then 
calculating the lift with those values.

Does somebody have an idea to do this?

Best Regards,

Hugo
