Optimization of the shape of the volute and diffuser of a centrifugal compressor.
For shape creation, we use CAESES, and for mesh model creation and CFD analysis, we use products from NUMECA!
At the Technical University of Darmstadt in Germany (Institute of Gas Turbines and Aerospace Propulsion), research was conducted on the automatic optimization of the volute of centrifugal compressors and vane diffusers. This project was carried out in collaboration with NUMECA, a German company, and Kompressorenbau Bannewitz GmbH (KBB), a turbo machinery manufacturer. CAESES was used for shape creation, while NUMECA's products were utilized for mesh model creation and CFD analysis. In CAESES, a parametric model was created that allowed for variations in the cross-sectional shape and area distribution of the volute. For the diffuser, a non-axisymmetric design was implemented, enabling quick shape transformations by varying the misalignment angle, blade twist, chord length, pitch, and rotation through a parametric model. *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.
