RELCENTROIDX Centroid Relative Calculations		MINFORM VARIABLE NOMFILE VARFILE			CCPOS This calculation reports the distance from the Stack Axis to a point on the Concave side of the airfoil along the X-axis. If a distance is needed at a rotation from the X-axis, then enter a CCPOS_REFANGLE in the tolerance file.

The Flavor file provides keywords that tell PC-DMIS Blade to perform certain calculations using the associated methods. These calculation keywords follow the CALCS (N) entry. N represents the number of following lines that must contain a valid calculation name.

The methods and other calculation modifiers on the Calculations tab are not defined in the CALCS block. They are found in the following block, which represents calculation modifiers. Some calculations do not have any methods. Some have one set of methods, and some have two sets.

In the First Method and Second Method columns in the following tables, REPORT methods are shown in bold; they regard the convention or reporting style of the calculation. REFERENCE methods are not shown in bold; they regard the actual calculation method. The columns also indicate the default method for each calculation.

The topics in the Description column appear in the "Measuring Blade Parameters" chapter.
