Creating the nozzle fillet
The Surface Fillet tool can be used in different modes. The default mode, which
you used for the body fillet, is to create a circular fillet. This creates a constant
radius surface along the length of the fillet surface.
For the nozzle, you will create a chordal fillet. A chordal fillet maintains a
constant width of surface, instead of a constant radius. This will produce a
more regular surface when the angle between the two main surfaces varies
along their edge.
1 Choose Surfaces > Surface Fillet . Double-click the icon to open the surface
fillet option box. In the Advanced tab, the flow control settings are
currently set to Edge Align for the start and end.
