Turbine Design
Capabilities
- Design different types of turbines in a specific speed range 8 < nq < 500 (EU), 400 < Ns < 22,000 (US)
- Create complete turbine stages from different single components such as rotors, vaned and unvaned stators, and volutes
- Use a fully parametric geometry model of the turbine that can be the basis for design exploration and optimization
- Export the 3D model for further applications like flow simulation (CFD), finite element analysis (FEA), mechanical design (CAD), and rapid prototyping
Rotors
Design turbine rotors according to your specific needs. The underlying design theory is based on fundemental equations and the latest empirical correlations.
Volutes
Design the volute while the turbine type is centrifugal or mixed-flow. Inflow conditions of the previously designed rotor or vaned diffuser are automatically taken into account.
Stators
Vaned and unvaned stators complete the flow channel of the turbine stage. Additionally, unvaned stators may be used to prepare a model for flow simulation.
Optimize your turbines
Through the connection of simulation software you can partially or completely automate your workflow to optimize your turbine. This will significantly reduce development time.
