Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Turbomachinery plays a pivotal role in various energy-related sectors, from power generation and aerospace to automotive industries. In the context of the current energy transition, the optimization of turbomachinery components, including compressors, turbines, and pumps, holds high strategic significance. This optimization is indispensable for bolstering energy efficiency and safeguarding environmental sustainability. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations have become indispensable in analyzing, designing, and optimizing turbomachinery systems.
This Special Issue aims to showcase recent advancements, challenges, and innovations in simulations for energy-focused turbomachinery applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advanced numerical methods and algorithms for simulating complex flow phenomena in high-performance turbomachinery.
- Multi-disciplinary simulations for integrating fluid dynamics with structural, thermal, or acoustic analyses to enhance energy performance.
- High-fidelity simulations for capturing flow instabilities, unsteady phenomena, and transient operations in turbomachinery.
- Simulation-driven design optimization techniques for improving energy efficiency, reliability, and performance of turbomachinery components.
- Integration of simulations with experimental data for validation and verification purposes.
- Applications of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data-driven modeling in high-performance turbomachinery simulations.
- Case studies demonstrating successful applications of simulations in addressing real-world energy-related turbomachinery engineering challenges.
Gas turbines, steam turbines, wind turbines, thermal dynamics, combustion, and compressors represent integral aspects within this Special Issue, given their substantial contributions to energy generation and utilization.
Researchers and practitioners are encouraged to submit original research articles, review papers, and case studies addressing the aforementioned topics. This Special Issue aims to foster discussions, share insights, and promote collaboration among academia, industry, and research institutions in advancing energy-focused turbomachinery simulations.
