Abstract :
A software is presented for the design of turbomachinery blades. It provides the ability to interactively construct 3D turbomachinery parametric bladings of various types. The blades´ as well as the hub and shroud surfaces are modeled as NURBS 3D surfaces, although the design parameters used for their construction correspond to 2D sections. The resulting geometries can be exported to other CAD or grid generation software, through standard exchange formats
