Hi there!

I'm trying to make a good-looking mesh for my wind turbine study. It's a blade and 120 deg sector of surrounding air. The airfoil is linearized with shorty lines in order to eliminate high-order NURBS surfaces problem, which I had suffered much from previously.

I want to mesh it in ICEM but not sure what strategy to use for blocking. Actually there are too many faces with different angles and locations to do this manually. Is there any techniques to associate inner o-grid block to the blade surface with minimum movements?
