In the case of the impeller I might try using BREP directly in Yade.

Subject: Re: [Yade-users] Compatibility with AutoCAD/GAMBIT

I'm intending to draft & import 2 geometries:
1. Rushton turbine impeller in cylindrical vessel
2. Screw extruder (in the long term)

I'll try with AutoCAD & do an stlout first, but I guess a better solution would 
be to install SALOME?

Thanks,
Ken

There is no direct import (see
https://yade-dem.org/sphinx/yade.ymport.html for what is available); it
depends on what kind of data you want to import. I would suggest that you
either convert those data to STL or have Gambit write a text file which you
can read with python functions easily (see the source of yade.ymport.text
for inspiration); we can add it to ymport if you will think it will be
generally useful.
