Regarding construction of user surface

  I have created and simulated a blade profile inside a nozzle guide vane and in CFD post, at the midplane, I need a plane or surface which I can use to obtain the blade surface measurements. I created an STL file from the same geometry in ASCII and imported it into the ANSYS CFD post.
  The coordinate system origin is essentially the same for the annular cascade geometry and mid surface created in Solidworks. However, upon creating the surface and importing it into CFD Post as an STL file, the surface gets imported but kind of translated away from where I need it.
  I have attached a picture of the same.
  Please help.

  Why do you require that? You did run a case with that profile surface already right,?

  I have not created a mid radius surface at all. I thought of doing the same in CFD Post, intersect it with the blade wall and hence obtaining a curve...along which I would plot the Pressure values.
