2022 Online Interactive Turbine Design & Analysis Course: April 13 - 20

This course covers the selection, design and analysis of turbines. Thermodynamic requirements are discussed, then methods for choosing the right turbine for the application are described, followed by a look into preliminary design and design optimization tools. Aerodynamic design features and methods of achieving high efficiency, life assessment, durability, and the causes of failure in both axial and radial stages, are taught, as well as state-of-the-art methods of numerical optimization, and the process for productionizing a turbine.
