I'm doing my thesis work and I'm trying to simulate a pumo impeller for liquid hydrogen but I have a problem with turbogrid. My impeller has 11 plitter blades for every blade set and turbogrid cant create a topology for the mesh. Can I create a custom topology or how van I fix this problem? Please help

TurboGrid only supports up to three splitter blades.  If there are more than three splitter blades, here is one option:

• Define the geometry with all splitter blades in BladeGen.  Export the Neutral Data File (NDF)
• In BladeEditor, load the NDF file.  Create a StageFluidZone.  Suppress the blades.
• In Ansys Meshing, generate a tet/prism mesh with inflation on the blade passage.
