Hi everybody

 

Could you be so kind and help me to connect surfaces? I was using Creo Parametric and here in Autodesk® Inventor® 2023 it is little bit different :). Please see a ipt as attachments

 

I wouldl like to connect two circles (dia140mm) on the to with the one on the bottom (dia240mm).

Hi! There are multiple ways to create the geometry. Here is one solution without using Loft, Boundary Patch, or Freeform. I tried honoring the design intent as much as possible. The geometry at the junction is undefined. As long as the transition is smooth, it should be fine. However, you may need to run CFD Analysis to ensure the fluid handling performance is acceptable.
