Dear Fluid Experts,
Can you please add your views on how Flow simulation can be helpful with Turbines used in Industrial plant ?
consider a impulse/reaction turbine with multi-stages, can pressure drop be extracted across each stages ? if so, is cut-plot has to be used across each stage to note it manually...
Thanks,
Aj.
is this what you're talking about?

i so, won't be a fit for flow simulation.
flow simulation rotating regions are really built for things like pumps
Dear Nicholas,
What sort of assumptions should we consider in plotting pressure drop across stages?
Dear Conway,
Thanks for sharing, its the same I am expecting to do in Flow SImulation...
Are there any reagrding Reaction Turbine, we can use Flow Simulation ?
Thanks,
-Ajay.S
tell me more about reaction turbines, get me some pictures, tell me what you want to learn
Hi Ajay,
You can do what you are trying to achieve. However, you will probably be disapointed once you:
A. See how many simulations you will have to run
and
B. See what sort of assumptions you will need to make in order to get any sorts of results
It's certainly worth asking your VAR to see what they can do but I would first see how other folks do it in this industry.
All the best,
Nick Luyster
