Greetings, all
 
I have attached some aerofoil data for a Clark Y foil. This data is also 
available in my spread sheet.
 
The Reynolds number is given in the heading as 
5.00E+04, 1.00E+05, 5.00E+05, 1.00E+06 and 3.00E+06. I need to find Cl and 
Cd at an AoA for a Reynolds number:
 
GetCl(AoA, Re)
GetCd(AoA, RE)
 
Interpolation functions are easy enough to find. 
Here<http://www.vbaexpress.com/forum/showthread.php?41522-Linear-Interpolation&p=263514&viewfull=1#post263514>is
 one that also includes sorting. But I need to run this over the 
"two-dimensional" array that is the aerofoil data. Not all aerofoil AoA's 
are the same for the different Re (xfoil was used to obtain this data). 
This means that creating an array would have blanks at some AoA's, unless I 
interpolate to fill in the gaps.
 
I was thinking that I might write a code to create an array of cl and cd 
for each Re-number at the AoA, but the AoA is not always a neat number. 
However, neither is the Reynolds number.
 
How would you do it? Could you use an interpolation function such as the 
one I linked to (not a preference, so I'm impartial)?
 
Thanks in advance
