   The integrated solution should:

  • Involve a set of design modules needed for procedures in 1D and 2D formulations with the output of 3D geometric models, which

    are ready for final refinement by means of 3D aerodynamic and stress calculations
  • Make it possible to automate multivariate and optimization calculations
  • Ensure an interactive design scenario with the opportunity to return to the beginning at the early design


    stages, versions support, and project integrity
  • Give the user convenient mecha-nisms for data input, modification, output and export into other software systems
  • Ensure expansibility, scalability, and maintainability

    These requirements guarantee that the conceptual design approach described here can be successfully implemented.
    Robust and efficient aerodynamic and structural solvers are key features of modern flowpath design. These solvers work together in a single workflow envi­ronment, allowing the designers to carry out the complete turbomachinery design, from concept to final product quickly and more efficiently than in the past.
