Using values to derive the general shape of a rotor

I build CAD models for RF signatures, CFD, and other analysis for a living. What software will you be using for modeling and analysis?

Modeling and FEA will be done using Autodesk Inventor, CFD will be done using Autodesk Algor simulation software.

I'm a little busy with school work at the moment so I may have to hold off on this for a little bit, but I'm still planning on doing it.
