- Mainly applicable to transonic axial fans and turbines.
- Rotating and stationary components.
Two types of design specification:
- Method 1 - The loading distribution or derivative of circumferentially averaged swirl velocity, as in TURBOdesign1, is specified together with blade normal thickness.
- Method 2 - The surface static pressure Loading, ΔP (=P+ – P-) is specified together with the normal thickness.
- Possible to use both Analysis and Design Modes.
- Existing blade geometry can be read in and only certain parts of the blade is modified by changes to the loading distribution.
- Interactive modification of thickness, streamwise and spanwise loading distribution.
