Advanced Turbomachinery

By Foued Chabane

This book presents an in-depth study of turbomachines, covering their fundamentals, aerodynamics, flow analysis, and construction. It begins with classification, similarity laws, velocity triangles, and the Euler equation. The aerodynamics of blade cascades is explored, including lift, drag, and design correlations such as solidity, deviation, and deflection. Two-dimensional flow topics include radial equilibrium, actuator disk theory, blade-to-blade flow, and boundary layers. Three-dimensional flow addresses governing equations, CFD applications, unsteady rotor-stator interactions, cooling methods, losses, and measurement techniques. The final chapter focuses on construction, detailing bearings, couplings, gearboxes, lubrication and sealing systems, as well as steam turbines, gas turbines, and compressors, including their components, operation, and applications.
