TurboDesign suite 5.2 TURBOdesign Suite - 3D Inverse Design & Analysis Code An important aspect of turbomachinery design is the meanline design at which point key dimensions such as tip diameter and exit width are computed for a given duty condition. These geometrical parameters have a major effect on performance. TURBOdesign pre already provides an accurate and efficient means of preliminary design for centrifugal compressors, centrifugal pumps and radial turbines. In TURBOdesign Suite v5.2.5 these meanline design capabilities are extended to centrifugal fans, and mixed-flow pump stages for the first time. Also improvements are made to the existing centrifugal pump, centrifugal compressor and radial-inflow turbine models. TURBOdesign Suite delivers immediate improvements to the preliminary design cycle of all turbomachinery components; designers can now immediately evaluate the trade-offs between stage performances and packaging volumes and costs with minimal input data. Streamlining design processes and workflows: With the vast number of engineering tools used in the turbomachinery development process, data transfer and integration between design and analysis software can save hundreds of man hours per project. Major Improvements in TURBOdesign Suite v5.2.5 enhances integration and automation of design processes and workflows within the Clients software landscapes, this new version brings extended import capabilities for existing blade designs, automation for a variety of design post-processing tasks such as profiling of leading and trailing edges along with automatic geometry file conversion to help designers reduce manual CAD operations and allows for more design iterations and coupling with automatic optimization methods. Accurate parametric studies to explore more of the design space with less computational costs: Turbomachinery is nowadays required to operate across multiple operating conditions challenging the designers to consider more of the design space and understand the impact of the changes at different speeds / operating conditions. TURBOdesign Suite v5.2.5 delivers improvements to meridional shape and meanline flow-path parameterisation for axial, mixed-flow and centrifugal / radial turbomachinery blades allowing more design space to be explored with lower number of design parameters. Unique blade parameterisation capabilities based on three-dimensional blade loading definition lower the errors associated with interconnected geometrical design parameters resulting in higher order of accuracy response models and can drastically decrease computational costs.
