Results from automated turbomachinery optimizations are presented:
▪ Hydraulic design optimization of a bowl diffuser using a parametric conceptual design software fully integrated into industry-leading simulation framework
▪ A guideline is provided to systematically improve hydraulic efficiency and the required NPSH value for a multistage pump
▪ The reliability of the tendencies seen in the steady-state results of the optimization were verified by fully transient simulations
