Inlet

Part 2- Nozzle

• On the front plane, sketch a 200 x 200 mm square

• Draw a plane 20 cm from the Front Plane

• 

• Sketch a 9x9 cm square on the new plane

• Use Lofted Boss/Base on Sketch1 and Sketch2

• Right click the small square on Loft1 and start a sketch

  • do the same on the other side

• Click Offset Entities, 0.5, check Reversed

• Use Lofted Cut

• Drag the blue bar above Cut-Loft1 in the feature panel
  • start a new sketch on the smaller square
  • Click Offset Entities, 0.5

• Extrude the top and bottom squares

• Move the blue bar back down, then hide Plane1

Part 3- Test Section

• On the front plane, create a 9x9 cm square and extrude it

• Use shell tool on either side

• Start a sketch on one of the sides, draw a 5x10 rectangle

• Click the rectangle center and the the midpoint along the length of the bigger rectangle and add vertical relation

  • Do similar for horizontal relation

• Use Extruded Cut on the smaller rectangle

• Click Box-Etrude1, click Convert Entities, then click on the outer edge, then click Offset Entities, 0.5cm
• Reverse extrude 0.5cm

• Do the same on other side

Part 4- Diffuser

• Draw a 9x9mm square on the front plane

• Use Reference → plane to add a plane 50cm from the front plane, then sketch a 12.5x12.5cm square on that

• Use Lofted Boss/Base to extrude between the squares

• Use Shell feature, 0.5cm

• Create a sketch on the smaller square, convert entities,

• Reverse Boss extrude,, 0.5cm

• Do the same thing on the other side

• Click edit features and add outer edge to selected contours, then merge result

Part 5- Exit

• Sketch 12.5x12.5mm square on front plane
• Boss extrude 20cm

Part 6- Comb

• Sketch a 20x20mm square on front plane

• Boss extrude 1cm

• Create a sketch on one face
• Use polygon tool to create a hexagon, 0.3cm and make top line horizontal

• Use extruded cut tool on

[4/8/25] restart comb

• Use Linear Pattern → Fill Pattern
