This document summarizes a study that investigated the effects of backward and forward blade skew modes applied to axial flow turbo machinery using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) tools and analysis of experimental data from literature. Low-aspect-ratio rotors with forward and backward skew were modeled and their performance was compared to an unskewed datum rotor at various flow rates, spanwise positions, and efficiencies. The CFD results showed that at the design flow rate, forward skew reduced radially outward flow along the span, especially near the tip. It also provided greater efficiency up to 75% of the blade span compared to other rotors. Near the tip, forward skew increased inlet axial velocities and decreased them at smaller radii. Outlet axial

Improving the Hydraulic Efficiency of Centrifugal Pumps through Computational...IJERA Editor
The design and optimization of turbo machine impellers such as those in pumps and turbines is a highly complicated task due to the complex three-dimensional shape of the impeller blades and surrounding devices. Small differences in geometry can lead to significant changes in the performance of these machines. We report here an efficient numerical technique that automatically optimizes the geometry of these blades for maximum performance. The technique combines, mathematical modeling of the impeller blades using non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS), Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with Geometry Parameterizations in turbulent flow simulation and the Globalized and bounded Nelder-Mead (GBNM) algorithm in geometry optimization.

The research paper aims to showcase the development of software for the aerodynamic design of cooling tower fans. The software inputs requirements from the user and outputs the 3D CAD of an optimized fan. The software calculates power consumption, efficiency, torque, and sound level of the fan. The software has been found to overpredict the performance by few percentage points due to uncertainty in manufacturing. Authors - Abhishek Jain (Zeus Numerix), Ketan Bhokray (IIT Bombay)
The flow through the turbine components is associated with energy losses and hence energy
output from turbine is always less than the input energy. The global performance of turbine is
characterized by its overall efficiency. The casing has spiral shape and hence has swirling flow and
flow is subjected to frictional and vortex losses. The passage in stay ring and distributor has solid
vanes and flow passes through the ducts between the vanes is subjected mostly frictional losses.
Since runner is the most important component of mixed flow turbine and its design i.e. the blade
profile, number of blades plays vital role in overall performance of turbine at all operating regimes.
In the present work the numerical simulation of hydraulic Francis turbine is carried out by using
ANSYS software. The losses in each part of turbine are computed at different operating conditions
by changing the solidity of existing runner. The numerical results for efficiency of existing runner
are validated with experimental values. This study can be used efficiently as a reliable tool for
the practical design and performance analysis of Francis hydraulic turbines.

Cfd analysis of rae 2822 supercritical airfoil at transonic mach speedseSAT Journals
Abstract The Aerodynamic characteristics of an airfoil play a very important role in terms of design aspects and experimental validation. A distinctive supercritical airfoil is found to give inappropriate results at peak operating conditions. This led to design changes and optimization of the foil with the help of a cusp like structure added to the trailing edge of the foil. The present work emphasizes the computation of a supercritical airfoil with and without wedge profiles at different angles of attack and free stream velocities. The formation of a shock wave is observed when the free stream approaches a transonic mach number. This shock wave is a type of propagating disturbance which greatly effects the aerodynamic performance of the airfoil. The flow properties such as pressure, temperature and density experience a drastic change upstream and downstream of the generated shock. The main goal of the proposed paper is to carryout the simulation and analysis of RAE 2822 supercritical airfoil with and without wedge profiles along with the study of aerodynamic characteristics such as Lift and drag coefficients at different Mach numbers. The objective is to improve the stability of the airfoil when the flow approaches transonic Mach speeds. The design profile chosen is based upon existing literature studies.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.
