I would like to have a drawing of a heart in IGES (prefered), bu mostly any format that solidedge will see or acad will be fine. have not found a good model for a Heart. The one i found had a bunc of triangles that made up the exterior of the heart. I need the hear drawing as a solid so i can do a CFD on it for my masters work. If yo have any lead whatsoever then please feel free to let me know

David,
I have an STL of a heart that I did for someone else in this NG a while ago that you are welcome to. I downloaded it as a 3ds file and brought it into Geomagic to refine it some, but I never surfaced it. So if you can use it let me know. It's less than a MEG zipped.

Somewhere I have a paper on this. They modeled the heart and did FEA and flow on it as well as modeling the firing mechanism. The model didn't need to be very accurate.
Just a thought. There is a SW add-in called BodyWorks. I don't have it, but if somebody does, maybe they could create a heart for you and send it to you. That is if they have one........
