Optimizing the design of rotating machines offers enormous potential. In a fan design, for example, high efficiency is an important criterion as fans consume 18% of electricity in commercial and industrial buildings and processes. With CFD simulation, you can predict the 3D flow field distribution and determine the output velocities and flow rates for different operating conditions, assess the static and total pressure rise or optimize your current turbomachinery designs to improve their performance. Moreover, using CFD simulation for turbomachinery designs, you can calculate the aerodynamic forces and moments acting on the rotor to determine the torque for various flow rates and RPMs.
Accurate online simulation allows you to evaluate alternative design iterations simultaneously and fast. The SimScale simulation platform enables engineers working in the turbomachinery industry to better understand the physical phenomena, simulate designs, and optimize their rotating machinery without leaving the web browser. SimScale is a powerful tool in the early stages of the design process, providing a full range of analyses, including fluid dynamics, solid mechanics and thermodynamics. As a result, you will increase the efficiency, reliability, and durability of your pump, fan, propeller, turbine, blower design, or centrifugal pump curve.
