Wrap Angle for Impeller

ssmacae · March 29, 2007, 11:32

Hi, I was looking at Blade Modeler supplied by Ansys-CFX. In order to create an Impeller geometry we need to specify wrap angle. I know the inlet and exit relative angle of the impeller. Can anyone guide me how to compute the wrap angle? Is there any loss model associated with the wrap angle? Thanks in advance.

Hi there!
I'm also facing the same problem. Were you able to figure it out?
If so, could you please let me know of the exact method to figure out the wrap angle?
