TURBOMACHINERY

TURBOMACHINERY

The "Turbomachinery" course offers an in-depth study of the machinery that plays a critical role in various engineering systems by converting energy between fluid and mechanical forms. The course covers the fundamental principles, design methods, and performance analysis of different types of turbomachines, including axial and radial flow turbines, compressors, and pumps. Participants will learn about the thermodynamic and fluid dynamic principles that underpin the operation of turbomachinery. The curriculum includes topics such as energy transfer in turbomachines, velocity triangles, flow analysis, blade design, and efficiency calculations. Students will also explore the impact of different working fluids, operational conditions, and performance characteristics on the design and operation of turbomachinery. Through a combination of theoretical instruction, practical problem-solving, and case studies, students will develop the skills needed to design, analyze, and optimize turbomachinery for various applications, such as power generation, aviation, and industrial processes. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped with the knowledge to tackle real-world engineering challenges involving turbomachinery, ensuring they can contribute effectively to the design and operation of these critical machines.
