ASME Workshop
Hydraulic Pump Design, Simulation and Optimization
10, 17 January 2024
ASME and CFturbo are thrilled to announce their first joint online course about hydraulic design, simulation, and optimization. This course will teach fundamental design methodology for axial, mixed-flow, and centrifugal pumps.
In four two-hour lectures, we will provide the basic knowledge of hydraulic design and its application in modern conceptual design software. Every attendee will receive a certificate and a CFturbo license valid for two months for practicing.
It's a live workshop only without recording.
A follow-up meeting for general Q&A is planned for mid of July.
Price: $175 Register
