I have aerofoil on a plane which is as shown in fig.3 of attachments they are lying on the different parallel planes. but I want to have them like how they are shown in images 1 and 2. In images 1 and 2, the aerofoils are projected onto right circular cylinders fashion. I have attached the igs file of various splines.

This looks straight forward. Create the cylindrical surface and then project those curves to it.

Use the Project feature to project a sketch onto a cylindrical surface or quilt.

 

Also look at the Wrap feature in case this is more appropriate.

Thank you, I should use a wrap instead of project command as it gives the exact shape and size. How to blend after wrapping all the curves

I do have some luck with boundary blend but a sweep-blend feature may also work for you.
