I found this comment very interesting as I have been advocating the rounded "nose cone" for some time.  Mainly because there is a mathematical solution for fluid flow around a sphere.  Knowing that flow, one can then redesign the blades, at least in principle.  Anyway, do have any references or links detailing the shortcomings of the pointed nose cones?  Thanks.
