ADT Delivers Turbomachinery Design Optimization at 41st Turbomachinery Symposium
… Smarter approach to design challenges for more efficient, innovative turbomachinery packages.
Houston, Texas and LONDON - August 22, 2012 - Advanced Design Technology (ADT), a global leader in the development of advanced turbomachinery design methods and the TURBOdesign Suite, will exhibit in Booth 140 at the 41st Turbomachinery Symposium, September 24-27 in Houston, Texas. ADT will demonstrate how TURBOdesign Suite 5.2, provides faster turbomachinery design capabilities for wider operating ranges and customized solutions. Turbomachinery design engineers and original equipment manufacturers will benefit from the 3D inverse design technology in ADT's TURBOdesign Suite.
According to conference organizers, the Texas A&M Turbomachinery Laboratory 41st Turbomachinery Symposium in the Fall of each year promotes professional development, technology transfer, peer networking, and information exchange among turbomachinery industry professionals. This event is led by engineers with vast experience in the petrochemical, process, chemical, utility, contractor, and consulting fields, along with manufacturers of rotating equipment and fluid-handling equipment from around the world.
"Many turbomachinery OEM's are facing commercial drivers to provide highly efficient products over a wide operating range or tailored to specific customer requirements," said Professor Mehrdad Zangeneh, founder and managing director of ADT. "Our unique approach to turbomachinery design optimization provides innovative solutions while reducing development time and costs."
Where more conventional design methods rely heavily on computational power, making it very expensive to combine product innovation with customized solutions, ADT's unique approach to turbomachinery design optimization eliminates bottlenecks to innovation by providing a smarter and more productive approach to solve multiple turbomachinery design challenges.
Fast development of customized design is therefore made possible.
"The extensive use of TURBOdesign1 has enabled Voith Turbo to improve the aerodynamic design of torque converters and to speed up the overall design process," commented Dr. Andreas Basteck, general manager engineering, Voith Turbo AG. "The introduction of TURBOdesign1 also allowed Voith to minimize the number of CFD simulations required to optimize the hydrodynamic design of torque converters."
Turbomachinery manufacturers of all sizes and applications can now benefit from ADT's TURBOdesign Suite 5.2 for design optimization of their turbomachinery components. "By using TURBOdesign1 it is very easy to modify the loading distribution and hence control the Mach number distribution on the blades," commented Ennio Spano, technical direction, research department, Avio Group. "By using TURBOdesign1 we have been able to achieve most of our objectives to improve our design system and shorten engineering time. A number of Avio products have since been designed by using 3D inverse design technology."
ADT's engineers will be at Booth 140 to demonstrate how TURBOdesign Suite 5.2 can help all turbomachinery manufacturers to deliver breakthrough turbomachinery designs.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
