Hi, In order to understand your definition of pitch, skew and rake I have a couple of questions. In the documentation there is a profile and a picture showing the definitions, although its slightly confusing since the (by the look of it) the pitch definition is defined as the blade profile is rotating around max thickness when picth is altered. If that is the case then rake would be influenced and this is not the case when you model the blade by the curves in CAESES. Can you point out what the tho points in that picture represents, one should be the generator line and the other max thickness, but which is which? BR Daniel -
Hi together, For general sweep surfaces, we provide the type FSweepSurface but also the transformation FSweepTransformation, which is more powerful: With this transformation, you can control the shape of the swept surface (=>meta surface) along the path with your own functions for each profile parameter. If you want to use this transformation and you need to match a start and end profile, then please find attached an example where two sweep transformations are merged in a single meta surface. We simply fade from one definition into the other one by using two curve engines in a single meta surface. The attached project still contains the intial setup, from which a feature definition was created (from selection) - in order to encapsulate the two sweeping profiles. Just set the scope "01_..." to visible if you like to have a look at it. Cheers Joerg SweepTransformation.fdb
