PROBLEM STATEMENT
The demand for energy is increasing while
the primary energy resource is decreasing
Current design of turbine fails to provide
good efficiency at low pressure ratios
Blade angle design for non-radial low
pressure turbine (LPT)

OBJECTIVES
Produce

Meshing model for the Low Pressure


Turbine (LPT)

Performance of the Low Pressure


Investigate Turbine (LPT)

Evaluate

Flow field of the Low Pressure


Turbine (LPT)

SCOPE OF WORK
OBJECTIVE
1. To produce meshing model for the Low
Pressure Turbine (LPT).

SCOPE OF WORK
-The CFD simulation is conducted for 500
iterations.
-Turbine blade was modelled using ANYSIS
15.0 Turbogrid software.
-The turbine was analyzed with high meshing
element (1.5 million) -The turbine was analyze
using single passage CFD simulation
-CFD analysis for blade angle 39, 42, 48, and
51 for forward swept and backward swept was
conducted at the same speed which is 50,000
rpm

2. To investigate the performance of the Low


Pressure Turbine (LPT).

-The operating performance obtained from the


simulation are mass flow parameter, pressure
ratio, velocity ratio and total to static
efficiency.

-The operating performance are analyze and


the best design for blade angle are
determined.

3. To evaluate the flow field of the Low


Pressure Turbine (LPT).

METHODOLOGY

LITERATURE
REVIEW
Turbine use in turbocompounding
The cone angle for radial
turbine is fixed at 90
while the cone angle for
mixed flow turbine is not
set to 90

LITERATURE
REVIEW
Turbine use in turbocompounding
Mixed flow turbines offers
the advantage of
additional degrees of
freedom

LITERATURE
REVIEW
Losses in turbine

Stator loss
Rotor loss

LITERATURE
REVIEW
Performance parameter
The important performance parameter needed to
characterize the turbine performance are
Total-to-static efficiency,
Mass Flow Parameter (MFP),
Pressure Ratio (PR),
Velocity Ratio (VR) and
turbine power.

LITERATURE
REVIEW
The turbine performance are usually plotted on
the performance map.
The turbine efficiency will be plotted against
Velocity Ratio (VR) and Pressure Ratio (PR).
As for the mass flow parameter (MFP), it will be
plotted against Pressure Ratio (PR).
The turbine performance are analyse using the
performance map in the Turbocompounding.

Current status
The preparation of the preliminary design for
this project is completed.
The boundary condition of the Low Pressure
LPT for blade angle 39, 42, 48, and 51 has
been validate for all parameters.
The mean line model has been generated for
all blade angle

Expected result
We expected all the objectives of this project were
fulfilled
We expected that the simulation run successfully
without any error
We also expect to be able to evaluate the
performance of the turbine
We able to choose the best blade design based on
result obtain which includes entropy generation, the
peak effeiciency, and the graph of MFP vs PR
