Maximize ROI with Advanced Turbomachinery Design Software

Designing turbomachinery is a complex endeavor, marked by a multitude of challenges. Among these, the optimization of performance and the assurance of reliability are paramount. However, in today’s competitive landscape, these challenges are further compounded by the escalating demands for enhanced efficiency, environmental sustainability, and cost-effectiveness.

To effectively address these multifaceted challenges, a holistic and integrated design system is indispensable. This is where TurboTides® steps in, offering a comprehensive solution that seamlessly guides engineers through every step of the turbomachinery design process.

From the initial cycle analysis to meanline design, throughflow analysis, and precise blade-to-blade and throughflow simulations, TurboTides® ensures that your design journey is both efficient and effective. What’s more, its integrated platform enables interactive geometry editing, fostering a dynamic and iterative design process that leads to superior results.

Moreover, TurboTides® doesn’t stop at design; it offers a swift and convenient means of conducting CFD and FEA analyses, providing valuable insights into the performance and structural integrity of the designed turbomachinery.

By streamlining these processes and providing a holistic design experience, TurboTides® not only enhances the quality of your designs but also significantly reduces the design cycle time. This means that you can bring your cutting-edge turbomachinery to market faster and more competitively, meeting the ever-evolving demands of the industry.

Meanline Design and Analysis

1D meanline module supports preliminary design, analysis and data reduction for radial, mixed-flow and axial compressors, turbines, pumps and fans.

  • Meanline performs 1-dimensional design and generates flow path geometry.
  • TurboTides® uses conventional loss models to predict performance.
  •  Meanline solver in TurboTides® uses Design Mode, Analysis Mode or Data Reduction Mode. 
  • In Design Mode, TurboTides® applies a wide range of well-established design rules to assist designers in arriving at initial designs.
  • In Analysis Mode, TurboTides® predicts overall performance of the machine, including performance map generation (ideal or real gas)
  • In Data Reduction Mode TurboTides® uses test data to calibrate the analysis mode model, to make performance prediction more accurate.

Geometry module with 2D Solver

The geometry module provides extensive capability for interactive editing of the flow path.

Geometry editing for components of radial and axial – compressors, turbines, pumps, blowers and fan

In addition to creating the mechanical geometry for the flow path, detailed leakage path / secondary flows are also created. 

Not just impeller / blades but also the inlet casing and volute geometry can also created in geometry module.

The geometry modules based on streamline curvature model also provides 2D flow solver which includes a hub-to-shroud throughflow (S2 surface) solver and a blade-to-blade (S1 surface) solver.

3D CAD geometry import that includes flow passage, stator  and rotor blades, impeller with back face and also volute which can be fully parametrised and edited. 

Embedded database that supports convenient storage and reuse of any 3D component models. 

Industries most advanced volute editing capability wherein the user can control volute cross section, tongue and exit pipe. It also support dual volute and volute import. 

Supports various airfoil types for axial compressor and turbines which includes NACA, DCA, MCA, Legacy profiles etc.

CFD Module

The CFD module is based on Finite Volume solver
