The ever-increasing call for greener aviation, clean energy and sustainability in the market has sparked a pressing need for groundbreaking turbomachinery applications. However, the true test lies in swiftly and confidently introducing these cutting-edge products to the market while minimizing any potential risks.

To address this, an innovative approach to engineering is required, one that can efficiently discover optimal designs faster.

This webinar will feature MORFO Design, a spin-off of the University of Florence dedicated to exploring new engineering advancements in turbomachinery, and how they utilize Siemens Xcelerator's fluids and thermal simulation technology to meet the demands of innovative engineering.

Learn about MORFO Design's innovative use of the Simcenter computational fluid dynamics solution to define key design parameters and characteristics of a turbine blade. By harnessing the flexibility of JavaScript for automatic computer-aided design (CAD) generation, MORFO Design has streamlined the process of enhancing axial turbine blade performance. Through iterative modifications to the blade's shape, specific performance objectives such as maximizing energy conversion efficiency, minimizing pressure losses, and reducing noise levels can now be achieved more efficiently than ever before.
