Blade flutter
Jet engine noise
Forced response (blade vibration due to rotor/stator interactions)
A key task in analyzing these problems
is determing the unsteady flow.
Linear flow analysis can be used to accurately predict the
unsteady flow when a single time frequency dominates and the flow
perturbations are small.
This assumption is valid for many aeroelastic and aeroacoustic
problems in turbomachines.
Linear flow analysis is 10 to 100 times faster than conventional
time domain methods and just as accurate for most cases.
RPMTurbo has developed
LUFT™
(Linearized Unsteady Flow solver for Turbomachinery)
with the following features:
RPMTurbo delivers high quality analysis to its clients
because we have the ability to modify and tune the flow solver
for the client's application.
The combination of advanced flow modeling, customized analysis and
extensive industry experience gives RPMTurbo's customers
a unique advantage.
RPMTurbo also offers software licenses for LUFT.
This allows manufacturers to perform design calculations in-house.
