How to taper curved section? 1

[KimWonGun]

I am a beginner with ProE and have not yet successfully found any guide on how to taper a curved section as shown in the attached sketch. I believe the "extrude" function has an option to flare/taper the geometry, but I have not figured out how to apply that to a curved trajectory. The section is an "open" circle with a "neck" for water to travel between the impeller and casing.

I would make that part with a rotational blend. You would draw a new section at each place the section changes and do a straight blend between them.

The Help for this program was created in Windows Help format, which depends on a feature that isn't included in this version of Windows.

you could accomplish this using a swept blend
