Part 1:Making of Wine Glass
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

In this tutorial, we will learn how to make Fluid Effects using Blender 2.49.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Open Blender. Select the default Cube and press Tab<\/strong> to change object mode to edit mode.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the edit mode, press A<\/strong> to select all the vertices of the cube. On pressing Del<\/strong> key or X<\/strong> key, the Erase <\/strong>window will pop up with a drop down list, showing – Vertices, Edges, Faces, All, etc., Now, select the vertices and delete them<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, press the Ctrl<\/strong> key and Left click the mouse button<\/strong> (<\/strong>Ctrl + Left Mouse Button)<\/strong> to draw the shape using vertices as shown in the image below.
\nNote: The vertices should be drawn only in the front view.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After creating the shape, press F9<\/strong> key to change the material panel to editing panel. Now, press 7<\/strong> to change the view of the object to top view. Then, go to the editing panel and change the degree value to 360\u00c2\u00b0<\/strong>. It is located under the Spin <\/strong>button. Once the degree value is changed, press the Spin button – a Question mark <\/strong>will appear. Now, click on the top view of the object to get the wine glass model.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Select all the vertices by pressing A<\/strong> . Then,\u00c2\u00a0 go to MeshTools<\/strong> in the Editing panel and press the Remove Doubles <\/strong>button. This will remove all the duplicate vertices from the mesh.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now add a Sub Surf<\/strong> Modifier from the modifier panel and select Cat Mull-Clark<\/strong> from the drop-down list. Next, change the parameter to level 2<\/strong> and render to level 4<\/strong>. This will make the mesh smooth and refined.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Part 2: Creating the set up for fluid simulation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Create a cube and place the wine glass model in center of the cube as shown in the image below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, create cylinder using the curves<\/strong>. Duplicate the curve in edit mode<\/strong> and scale it down to the mid-point<\/strong> of the main curve. Then, extrude and set the position comfortably for the water to flow through it. Press Alt + C <\/strong>to convert the curves to mesh.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Note: Fluidsim can be activated on mesh only.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then, create a UV sphere and place it as shown in the image below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Now all the required objects are placed for stimulation. By pressing F7<\/strong> twice, the panel window will change to Physics Buttons<\/strong> window. Here, go to the Fluids Menu and\u00c2\u00a0 define:
\n– the external cube<\/strong> as Domain<\/strong>,
\n– the sphere<\/strong> as Inflow,<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\nInflow velocity\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 : X=0,Y=0,Z= – 0.6<\/p>\n

Select wine glass<\/strong> and set obstacle<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\nvolume int\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 : shell<\/p>\n

Select Cylinder<\/strong> and set obstacle<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

\n

After all the objects are defined, select the cube and press the BAKE<\/strong> button. This will take several minutes to bake the mesh for simulation.<\/p>\n

The material parameter for the water <\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The material parameter for the wine glass<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now,set the camera angle as you desire and render.
