TURBOdesign Suite is a unique aerodynamic and hydrodynamic 3D design package
OVERVIEW
The World is Evolving…
Our 3D Inverse Design method can be used to rapidly design pumps, compressors, fans, turbines and torque converters that deliver optimum performance and it supports engineers significantly to cut design time and cost.
3D Inverse Design method that uses fluid dynamics to directly generate optimum blade shape
Turbomachinery
Unlike traditional “direct” design methods that rely on trial and error between a given geometry and resultant flow field predicted by CFD codes, 3D Inverse Design method starts by identifying and provide direct control on what you want to do to the fluid flow in terms of 3D pressure field ideal for the required performance and efficiency. The software derive the optimal geometry based on proven mathematical models and Correlations (AI) to achieve that desired outcome. This significantly reduces the time taken for each design.
Why TURBOdesign Suite?
TURBOdesign Suite enable designers to arrive at optimal designs much faster than conventional design process. 3D Inverse Design method allows users to explore innovative solutions and solve difficult problems as they allow the user to have precise control on the 3D pressure loading on the blades and create geometries that always satisfy the required duty points in terms of flow rate and specific work. CFD simulation is required only to validate the final design.
Factors which tampers efficiency in turbomachines are 3D flow phenomena such as secondary flows, corner separations, tip clearance flow, cavitation, and shock are challenging to manage and balance. TURBOdesign Suite uses inputs like spanwise work distribution, blade loading on the whole meridional plane and stacking condition to directly influence and control these 3D flow phenomena.
TURBOdesign Suite provides a unique platform for rapid and accurate multi-point/multi-disciplinary optimization of all types of turbomachinery by using blade loading to “parameterize” the blade. Typically only 4-5 design parameters are needed to explore the 3D design space for a given blade row for optimal performance and manufacturability.
Optimum settings for a particular range of machines can be saved an reused. In other words blade loading strategy to avoid cavitation in pumps can be saved and reused for similar pumps. That that way the software can be used by less experienced designers. TURBODesign Suite enables the experienced designers to explore highly innovative designs which cannot be imagined in the conventional design process where user doesn't have the direct control on the flow field.
