AutoCAD Inventor :: Showing Flow Of Gas In A Cylinder?
Nov 11, 2013
I have attached a zip file of the engine assembly and its components, I couldn't attach one component because it's too big so I hope everything will still work without it, I'm hoping to show gas flow starting at the injector, into the cylinder, through the dumbell valve on the piston and out the bottom of the cylinder, if there is any way to do it in autodesk I'm willing to try as I just don't have a good enough grasp of 3dsMax yet.

In inventor 2013 I want to extrude a horizontal circle on surface of a bigger vertical hollow cylinder. but what i did it enters into cylinder, and i only want to extrude it on external surface.

I've got GIS shape files for sanitary sewer pipes and manholes which contains object data for the upstream and downstream inverts on each pipe as well as the lowest invert at each manhole. Ideally, I would like to add an arrow to the pipe showing the flow direction in the sewer. i know I can use the annotation template to label the inverts, but is there a way to automate the process to add the direction arrow?

Im a new user of Autodesk Inventor, working in a semi automation company, supplying conveyors and other related customized equipment. how to animate conveyor flow. attached is my file. a box and a conveyor line with straight, curve and spiral path. by self study I learned a lot of animation but this time I'm having problem because it's a combination of curve and spiral

I made an animation of a small prototype engine I am designing (attached as video 3) and I would like to be able to show fluid flowing in from the injector and into the cylinder, through the dumbbell valve and out the bottom, autodesk inventor does not seem to have this capability and its looking like my only option is to learn 3ds max and rebuild my animation in that.

I want to animate air flow in aircraft engine (see the file attached. It was captured from [URL]). Is that possible to create such animation it in Inventor? If cannot, what software can do that?

we have simple assemblies with bolted weldments and few misc. parts. most assemblies are 3-20 parts a typical project would have:
-a few laser cut parts, some plastic and hardware. these items need to have part drawings sent to a vendor.
-some in house cretaed parts that need a drawing
-assembly drawing for our shop
i think i am seeing that by having one single IDW its getting hard to send all the drawings to the people that need them. an example would be if a vendor calls about one part, i may send him a 4 page PDF and tell him to look on sheet 2.the other issue that i have is that my standard work flow is:
-design a product
-hand of to another dept for them to enter SKU numbers for parts and assemblies.
so my file names never match what the final product name is. i have been using fields in the iPROP, but it would be nice to revise file names when SKUs are created. im guessing vault would be the tool for something like that?

We have a waterjet and machine shop at my place of employment, and currently my work flow is to draw the parts. Then for parts that need material left for machining I create a new part and using the derive tool I place my base part which I then apply extrusions to fill the holes and use thicken to add material to the surfaces that need machining.

I need to emboss ( cut in ) some grooves into a cylinder, but in such a way, so that they won't get narrower. What do you think would be the best way to do that?

I have made a sheet metal cylinder with a rip. I am trying to create a seam on this rip as is done in [URL] ....... about half way through.
I have tried to go through the same steps, but I can not select the inside of the rip to built hems and flanges on. I also tried to make the cylinder by sketching 350 degrees of the cylinder instead of creating a rip, This had the same problem.
Why I can't select these edges or how I can work around it?

How can I create a rib that touches a plane and the end of a cylinder? Inventor will not do it since the thickness of the rib does not touch the cylinder (see attachment).

How to create a revolve surface in an assembly for the purpose of measuring a flow area through a specific area? See the attached JPG, I basically have a conical internal diameter with a pin protruding into it..... I need to measure the flow area as shown in the sketch attached here. the way I have this shown in the attached JPG is the way that we had previously performed this in Pro-e.

I am trying to CAD a model rocket I just made so I can test the aerodynamics of it. I have all of the individual parts made in inventor, but I am having trouble getting the fins on the rocket.
How can I constrain the fins (which have a flat face) to the outside of the cylindrical rocket tube? The photo shows the fin and the face (the narrow and long face) that I am trying to constrain to the tube.

I want to do a simple bend of a cylinder. That is, I have made a 40inch length and want to bend it at several places.
I keep finding a reference to bend part but the tool does not exist in Inventor.

I have a telescoping cylinder that someone else modeled. It has an extended and retracted positional rep. I want to make it free moving so that is will move in and out inside another assembly. I can get it to move freely and stop at it's extents using contact sets. My problem is that when you jump from a retracted position to an extended position the center rod "escapes" from the housing.

I'm trying to create a telescopic cylinder motion in Inventor, making the cylinders move together.
Like in this video: [URL]
Is this possible without using inventor studio? I can't figure out what constraint or joint to use.

I need to wrap some curve on a cylinder, after which i need to emboss the feature onto the cylinder.
I had sketches the curve and wrap it but was unable to emboss it to the cylinder.
Edited: I tried the boundary patch command. I was only managed to thicken/offset and then substract one patch with another one failed.

How to make a Mitered Elbow from a cylinder this is driven by our Manufacture they would like to roll a sheet of metal and have a stitch cut within the rolled sheet so they can then just cut the additional amount of material between the stitches to get two identical mitered elbows from one piece of rolled sheet metal. Please see the attached doc. to see what I'm trying to do.

I'm trying to find the intersecting points of a part that connects to the outside surface of a cylinder shaped part.
What is the best way to go about this? I have attached some images that hopefully illustrate my problem.

I'm currently modeling a propeller and i want to fillet the base of the blade to the hub but the way i have it will only let me fillet it towards the patched surface on top of the cylinder, what can I do?
I would also like to have the fillet be a large radii on the center and be small at the leading/trailing edges.I just tried posting it but the file I have available now is bigger than the limit and I cant compress it to 1.5 mb, while I get acces to the file on monday:
The blade is comprised of 2 lofted surfaces and patched surfaces to join them and make a closed loop, one of the patched surfaces ''hugs'' the cilinder outer surface (hub), when I try to fillet the it tries to smooth from the lofted surfaces to the patched surface, making the arc to the other side i want it to.

I want to creat a hollow cylinder. But I need to be able to unfold it to have a layout of the cylinder. So that when this DWG goes to the floor the technicans knows how much he/she will need from the sheet to roll the cylinder.

I am trying to make a toilet paper roller; standard white ones with the spring inside [URL] .
I need to cut the bottom of the cylinder at a 45 degree angle from the center to wall so if the roller was standing, it would be at an angle of 45 degrees to.
I have attatched what I have so far.
I am having trouble with the slicing. I am not sure how to chop the whole cylnder at an angle.
Also how do I remove the yellow lines and the white line with the measurement .1280 (you'll understand when you open the file)
