Book Aerodynamic Inverse Design of Turbomachinery Blading in Two dimensional Viscous Flow

Download or read book Aerodynamic Inverse Design of Turbomachinery Blading in Two dimensional Viscous Flow written by Kasra Daneshkhah and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inverse blade design method, applicable to 2D and 3D flow in turbomachinery blading is developed and is implemented for the design of 2D cascades in compressible viscous flow. The prescribed design quantities are either the pressure distributions on the blade suction and pressure surfaces or the blade pressure loading and its thickness distribution. The design scheme is based on a wall movement approach where the blade walls are modified based on a virtual velocity distribution that would make the current and target momentum fluxes balance on the blade suction and pressure surfaces. The virtual velocity is used to drive the blade geometry towards a steady state shape corresponding to the prescribed quantities. The design method is implemented in a consistent manner into the unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, where an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) formulation is used and the boundaries of the computational domain can move and deform in any prescribed time-varying fashion to accommodate the blade movement. A cell vertex finite volume method is used for discretizing the governing equations in space and, at each physical time level, integration in pseudotime is performed using an explicit Runge-Kutta scheme, where local time stepping and residual smoothing are used for convergence acceleration. For design calculations, which are inherently unsteady due to blade movement, the time accuracy of the solution is achieved by means of a dual time stepping scheme. An algebraic Baldwin-Lomax model is used for turbulence closure. The flow analysis method is applied to several test cases for steady state internal flow in linear cascades and the results are compared to numerical and experimental data available in the literature. The inverse design method is first validated for three different configurations, namely a parabolic cascade, a subsonic compressor cascade and a transonic impulse turbine cascade, where different choices of the prescribed design variables are used. The usefulness, robustness, accuracy, and flexibility of this inverse method are then demonstrated on the design of an ONERA transonic compressor cascade, a NACA transonic compressor cascade, a highly cambered DFVLR subsonic turbine cascade, and a VKI transonic turbine cascade geometries, which are typical of gas turbine blades used in modern gas turbine engines.

Book Aerodynamic Design and Optimization of Turbomachinery Blading

Download or read book Aerodynamic Design and Optimization of Turbomachinery Blading written by Temesgen Teklemariam Mengistu and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aerodynamic shape optimization of gas turbine blades is a very challenging task, given e.g. the flow complexity, the stringent performance requirements, the structural and manufacturing constraints, etc ... This work addresses the challenge by automating the optimization process through the development, implementation and integration of state-of-the-art shape parametrization, numerical optimization methods, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) algorithms and computer architectures. The resulting scheme is successfully applied to single and multi-point aerodynamic shape optimization of several cascades involving two-dimensional transonic and subsonic, viscous and inviscid flow in compressor and turbine cascades. The optimization objective is to achieve a better aerodynamic performance, subject to aerodynamic and structural constraints, over the full operating range of gas turbine cascades by varying the blade profile. That profile is parameterized using a Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) representation, which is flexible accurate and capable of representing the blade profiles with a relatively small number of control points for a given tolerance. The NURBS parameters are then used as design variables in the optimization process. The optimization objective is determined from simulating the flow using an in-house CFD code that solves the two-dimensional Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (or Euler) equations using a cell-vertex finite volume method on an unstructured triangular mesh and turbulence is modeled using the Baldwin-Lomax model. To save computing time significantly, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is used to build a low fidelity model that approximates the optimization objective and constraints. Moreover, to reduce the computing wall-clock time, the optimization scheme was parallelized on an SGI ALTIX 3700 machine using Message Passing Interface (MPI), resulting in a parallelization efficiency of almost 100%. Different numerical optimization methods (genetic algorithm, simulated annealing and sequential quadratic programming) were developed, tested and implemented for the different parts of this work. The present choice of objective function and optimization methodology results in a significant improvement in performance for all the cascades that were optimized, without violating the design constraints. The use of ANN results in a ten-fold speed-up of the design process and the scheme parallelization allows for further reduction of the wall-clock time.

Book Three Dimensional Flow in Radial Turbomachinery and Its Impact on Design

Download or read book Three Dimensional Flow in Radial Turbomachinery and Its Impact on Design written by National Aeronautics and Space Adm Nasa and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the two papers on the 'Theory of Blade Design for Large Deflections' published in 1984, a new inverse design technique was presented for designing the shape of turbomachinery blades in three-dimensional flow. The technique involves the determination of the blade profile from the specification of a distribution of the product of the radius and the pitched averaged tangential velocity (i.e., r bar-V(sub theta), the mean swirl schedule) within the bladed region. This is in contrast to the conventional inverse design technique for turbomachinery blading in two dimensional flow in which the blade surface pressure or velocity distribution is specified and the blade profile determined as a result; this is feasible in two-dimensional flow because the streamlines along the blade surfaces are known a priori. However, in three-dimensional flow, the stream surface is free to deform within the blade passage so that the streamlines on the blade surfaces are not known a priori; thus it is difficult and not so useful to prescribe the blade surface pressure or velocity distribution and determine the resulting blade profile. It therefore seems logical to prescribe the swirl schedule within the bladed region for designing a turbomachinery blade profile in three-dimensional flow. Furthermore, specifying r bar-V(sub theta) has the following advantages: (1) it is related to the circulation around the blade (i.e., it is an aerodynamic quantity); (2) the work done or extracted is approximately proportional to the overall change in r bar-V(sub theta) across a given blade row (Euler turbine equation); and (3) the rate of change of r bar-V(sub theta) along the mean streamline at the blade is related to the pressure jump across the blade and therefore the blade loading. Since the publications of those two papers, the technique has been applied to the design of a low speed as well as a high speed radial inflow turbine (for turbocharger applications) both of which showed definite improvements...
