Using ANSYS Workbench Computer Environment in Turbomachinery Design Process
<p>The main focus of designing turbomachinery is to analyze and optimize the aerodynamic efficiency and structural integrity of the machine. The preferred way to perform aerodynamic and structural analysis is to connect the analyses and shorten the analysis time as much as possible. ANSYS, Inc. …

Analysis of civil aircraft propulsors with boundary layer ingestion
… propulsor sizing, and (ii) strategies for fan turbomachinery conceptual design, for a boundary layer ingesting (BLI) propulsion system for advanced civil transport aircraft. For the former, configuration performance analysis shows BLI yields a reduction in mechanical power required to propel a …

The dynamics of steady supersonic dense gas flows
… negative Γ regions has potential applications in turbomachinery design. The weak shock development results in a Burgers equation which is then solved numerically using the well-known MacCormack scheme. The results include the demonstration of many non-classical results such as expansion shocks, …

An investigation of real gas effects in supercritical CO₂ compressors
… of supercritical fluids with implications for turbomachinery design and analysis. Trends in gas dynamic behavior, not observed for ideal fluids, are investigated using the influence coefficients for compressible channel flow derived for real gas. The variation in the properties of CO2 and the …

A Design Study of Single-Rotor Turbomachinery Cycles
… are either axial or centrifugal (radial) in design. The combustion chamber is stationary on the engine casing. The type of engine that is of interest here is the gas turbine auxiliary power unit (APU). A typical APU has a centrifugal compressor, burner and an axial turbine. APUs generate …

Is the Weis-Fogh principle exploitable in turbomachines?
… anything previously known, can be exploited in turbomachinery. We think the answer is yes. Normal turbomachinery design is based on the analysis of isolated cascades of blades with steady entry and exit flows. The interactions between adjacent cascades, and non-uniformities of the flow, are …

Simulation-based Design with Polynomial Ridge Approximations
… to have an increasing importance in engineering design. Despite advances in computing power, simulation models that capture complex physical phenomena at high fidelities remain intractable for design tasks requiring repeated evaluations of quantities of interest. In these cases, engineers can …
