Select vertex 1 by holding down the Shift button and clicking on it. Next, select vertex 2. Click Apply in the Create Straight Edge window.

...

which says that there are 21 points along the edge and we are defining only 1 edge. This is followed by x,r and z coordinates for each point along the edge. The r-value for each x was generated from the above equation for r( x ) . The z-coordinate is 0 for all points since we have a 2D geometry.

Right-click on vert.dat and select Save As... to download the file to your working directory.

Main Menu > File > Import > ICEM Input ...

Next to File Name:, enter the path to the vert.dat file that you downloaded or browse to it by clicking on the Browse button.

Then, check the Vertices and Edges boxes under Geometry to Create as we want to create the vertices as well as the curved edge.

 Click Accept.
This should create the curved edge. Here it is in relation to the vertices we created above:

...

Operation Toolpad > Geometry Command Button > Edge Command Button  > Create Edge

Shift-click on vertex 1 and then the vertex above it to create the inlet edge.

...

Operation Toolpad > Geometry Command Button >Face Command Button >Form Face

Recall that we have to shift-click on each of the edges enclosing the face and then click Apply to create the face.
