Seek aerodynamic moment coefficient table for thick plate

Howdy all,

I'm trying to find tabular values, or an equation, of the moment coefficient for a thick plate subjected to wind forces, at various angles of attack. I suspect that the "thin plate airfoil" equations will not work, because my plate is pretty thick relative to its chord and span. I've already looked at the NASA education applets; these won't work for me, because they don't provide torque/moment information. Any sources? Thank you!

David
