Micro turbine design workflow with Simcenter™
Explore an in-depth demonstration of a complete digital workflow that takes you from concept to final design for a micro turbine's primary gas path using Simcenter™ X Advanced. This comprehensive walkthrough covers the entire process, starting with high-level performance requirements and moving seamlessly through each design phase.
The journey begins with system-level sizing in Simcenter Amesim, where initial component parameters, boundary conditions and performance maps are generated. From there, you'll see how integrated workflows with Advanced Design Technology Ltd.'s (ADT) TURBOdesign Suite transform these system-level results into detailed 3D aerodynamic designs for both compressor and turbine. Discover how TURBOdesign Suite's mean-line, 3D inverse design and AI-accelerated capabilities make rapid, robust blade-shape generation possible.
Learn how automated aerodynamic optimization is achieved through direct coupling with Simcenter STAR-CCM+, enabling high-fidelity CFD evaluation of candidate designs. Once promising concepts are identified, see how they're validated structurally using nonlinear analyses in Simcenter 3D with the Simcenter Nastran solver. We'll also explore rotor shaft development using an AI-accelerated multi-disciplinary optimization workflow in Simcenter HEEDS.
The demonstration continues with cold-to-hot clearance behavior assessment via automated fluid-structure interaction between Simcenter STAR-CCM+ and Simcenter Nastran. Finally, discover how rotor dynamic characteristics—including eigenmodes and automated Campbell diagram creation—are evaluated using Simcenter 3D Rotor Dynamics.
This webinar showcases a fully connected digital thread for turbomachinery development, highlighting how Simcenter X Advanced brings together simulation, data management and domain-specific tools to create a seamless, automated and traceable gas-path design process.
