Turbomachinery is a central part of any power plant. This course aims to offer a further specialization into the construction, function and control of these components. The course presents the thermodynamic and fluid mechanics of the interaction between the fluid and the machine. This course will thus provide an understanding of modern design methods associated with turbomachinery

The course aims at describing fundamental and advanced concepts in the field of turbomachinery. The concepts in the course are
Principles of thermodynamics and fluid flow
Compressible flow through nozzles
Principle of turbomachinery analysis
Steam turbines
Axial turbines
Axial compressors
Centrifugal compressors and pumps
Radial inflow turbines
Hydraulic turbines
Streamline curvature and radial equilibrium

Apply knowledge in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics to the understanding of turbomachinery
Describe, discuss and explain the function of the most common turbomachines
Understand basic consepts that govern the design of turbomachinery
Understand the principles that govern the three-dimensional flow through a turbomachine

Identify, formulate and apply relevant models in the modeling of turbomachinery for the construction and design of turbomachinery
Use modern techinques such as simulation tools for understanding the anaylsis of turbomachinery in innovative energy systems
Present and use models and simulation methods within the subject
Use simplified models to analyse turbomachinery

Present material and lead discussions on the subject of turbomachines
Present relevant theory to fellow students in a relevant manner
