CFturbo® Software & Engineering GmbH is an engineering company offering CAE services and software development focusing on fluid dynamics/turbomachinery. Our range of consultancy covers the whole turbomachinery development process - from consulting service, conceptual design and simulation up to construction, prototyping and measurement. Motivation The consistent implementation of modern simulation methods offers obvious benefits in the development of turbomachinery and systems. In the shortest of times, high quality designs can be created and verified. Virtual product development dramatically reduces the outlay entailed by expensive and time-consuming simulation tests. A key factor is the optimum interplay of design and post calculation procedures. Besides a rather intuitive, sequential method, commercial CFD/FEM programs can be combined, allowing the entire calculation and optimisation process to be conducted in batch mode. Our company offers consultancy and support in the introduction of CAE methods, as well as extensive services covering the design, post-calculation and optimisation of turbomachinery.
