CAD Modeling of HAWT Blade.
 

Hi there everyone.

I'm doing a project on "Design and Simulation of HAWT". i have used BEM (Blade Element Momentum) theory to get geometric parameters. I have modeled it using Solid works but i import it to ANSYS, the geometry just lose so much details. i have tried many formats i.e. igs, step ( 214 & 203 ), but nothing work.

Please let me know if there is a way to model HAWT blade using DESIGN MODELER. Because it's the only solution i can see.

can you import native *.sldprt or a parasolid *.x_t?
