Course Name: Introduction to Turbomachinery

Course abstract

The objective of the course is to provide a framework to discuss different kinds of turbomachinery through a unified approach. The material presented is intended for undergraduate and graduate students apart from professional engineers in the industry engaged in the analysis and development of turbomachinery. Coverage begins with the fundamental concepts, the equations of motion in a rotating system, and the Euler equation for turbomachinery. This is followed by the gas turbine cycle, similarity rules, and cascade flow analysis. The reader is then focused on flows through compressors and turbines, including a brief discussion on the secondary flow, tip clearance, blade cooling, surge, and stall. The course will be concluded with a discussion on CFD in the design and analysis of turbomachinery.
