Components
PROCEDURE
GEOMETRY CLEANUP
EXTRACTION OF MIDSURFACE
Midsurface is taken in parts according to thickness and saved with required properties.
Using the extend feature together with the intersect, the midsurface of the fins and attachments are created
Circular patterrns are made for components which are repeating and replicated
Final image midsurface
MESHING OF COMPONENTS
These criterias where used to provide optimum mesh flow for the meshing of components.
