  I have this CAD model of a single rotor blade along with hub and shroud. I am trying to prepare a mesh to be run in CFX. How do I go about preparing a flow passage for this blade? There should be 36 blades in the total geometry as well.

  Hi,
  You can mesh it in Turbogrid if you have the BladeModeler license. But before that you have to prepare the blade passage in DesignModeler. Videos of tutorials on this can be found online. Watching a video can help more than reading. As ansys employees I cannot share links directly. You can watch "BladeModeler: Importing CAD Blade Geometry" which is a Ansys How To video, as a starting point.
