Body Transformations

In this video, we show you how to correctly orient the blade given the pitch angle specification and we show you how to translate the blade so that the global axis becomes at center of rotation (center of hub).

In the following video, we close off all opening then make a solid body to represent the volume of the blade, out of the current surface bodies.

Finally, we do a Boolean subtraction to remove the blade volume from the fluid geometry.
