SW sweep - winglet


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi
I want to model an aircrafts winglet. I am having trouble sweeping the airfoil, curve 1, around the 60 degree's of a derived curve, (sketch 17). Initial sweeping resulted in a problem with SW maintaining tangency to the curve in sketch 17 so I added the same curve into sketch sketch 18, but I don't seem to be able to pierce it properly.

Below is what happens if I 'Keep Normal Constant.' I want the left most face inclined at 60 degrees to the right most face, (i.e. not so they are parallel).

Can anyone help me in making the profile incline around the Z axis as it goes round the guide curve ?

I dont seem to be able to upload my SLDPRT
