CFD-based design space map for 3700 radial compressors is consistent with the Cordier line; 8D polynomial surface fit yields a test RMS error of 1.2% eficiency

Jan 2, 2025 · After discussing general tools for design space mapping, the paper describes their application to radial compressors. I ran 3700 geometries across an eight-dimensional design space.

Choking happens when compressor discharge pressure is low and flow rate is high. Stalling happens when there is separation of air flow from suction side of impeller blade.

Rapid Design of an optimized Radial Compressor using CFturbo and ANSYS Enrique Correa, Marius Korfanty, Sebastian Stübing CFturbo Software & Engineering GmbH, Dresden (Germany)

The article also reports the resulting improvements in pressure ratio and overall isentropic efficiency of the machine, by means of investigations of nine different compressor configurations, including the …
