Mr. saeed karami__0001 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2021 Hi, I try to model a kind of special propeller produced by Sharrow Marine just like the picture shows but I have no ideas, is there a good way to model such propeller? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heinrich von Zadow 9 Report post Posted May 31, 2021 Dear Mr. Saeed, although I have no experience with such a design I am positive that something like this could be modelled with CAESES. Instead of the standard blade modeling functionality I would go for a meta surface to create the special shape. You could model the central u-turn-curve (dashed line in your last picture) first and then create the blade along this path while providing functions like chord, pitch, thickness etc. along this path. I guess, if you check the propeller and meta-surface tutorials and samples you should have a good idea how to proceed. Fell free to get back to me in case you get stuck. Cheers, Heinrich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
