Sorry for the delay...

Ran in a snag with the geometry. 39,000 tet faces that need to be filled. I've tried UG NX4, Solidworks, Pro/E, and Catia. None of them can do more than one fill face at a time and its pissing me off.

I'm trying to track down a more complete model. If anyone has any experience or suggestions on all of these tets, please let me know. I can't do 39,000+ by hand

Rest assured...I'll get this to work. It's one of my short term life goals at the moment.

Considering how much you were able to show us in thread https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=327235 , I can't wait to see where this one goes!

Hell, I'd be happy with a real Cd for the top-down configuration...everything I have been able to find so far seems to be a SWAG at best.

I'm on vacation all of this week, so my CAD work is going to have to wait. I'm definitely looking forward to running this analysis as it will absolutely, positively BLOW AWAY those in my previous threads.

Worst case scenario is that I have to fill each surface manually...all 39,000 of them. It will take a few days (or a weeks, I'm not sure), but theoretically it can be done...
