Complex geometries, difficult operating conditions and the demand for optimum efficiency present formidable challenges. At TriVista we have integrated our turbomachinery and CFD expertise with other advanced tools to offer a full fluid and mechanical service covering stress, thermal and dynamic issues. Our rotating systems expertise also enables a complete systems approach.

As well as bladed parts, CFD can also be applied to seals, volutes, valves, bearings, cavities and combustion chambers.

The benefits of CFD for the design of turbomachines include:

• Reduced prototyping and test
• Improved performance
• Greater understanding of flow behaviour
• Shorter development cycles
• Improved performance predictions

TriVista uses the latest ANSYS and ANSYS CFX products to provide cutting edge support to turbomachinery designers and developers.  Capabilities continue to increase, and include the following:

• Multiple fixed and rotating frames
• Conjugate heat transfer analysis
• Complex geometries, e.g. tip clearance and casing treatments
• Compressible and incompressible fluids
• Steady and unsteady separated flows
• Comprehensive turbulence modelling
• Multi-media fluids and variable fluid properties.
• Flow visualisation
• Calculation of key performance parameters.
