Abstract

This work presents an integrated optimization workflow for turbomachinery by coupling 3D inverse design and 3D CFD to perform multi-disciplinary, multi-objective and multi-point optimization of turbomachinery. The proposed workflow aims to reduce the computational requirements for turbomachinery optimization by a factor of 10, enabling automatic optimization to be part of routine turbomachinery design. A sample axial fan case will be used to demonstrate an efficient blade parameterization method in TURBOdesign1, automated workflow creation in TURBOdesign Link-CCM+ and 3D CFD in STAR-CCM+.  Aims of the optimization are to improve aerodynamic efficiency while also increasing the fan pressure rise.
