Course content

Machine types. Mechanical construction. Classification. Euler Energy Equation. Flow conditions in stationary cascades. Flow conditions and performance in the runner. Axial forces and torque. Rating and analysis of different turbo machinery, included main dimensions, dimensioning of the runner, vane shape. Real compression- and expansion analyses. Multiphase flow regimes. Loss mechanism. Multiphase pumps and turbines. Wet gas compressors. Gas turbine process. Pollution and influence. Operating conditions and system analysis.

Learning outcome

Knowledge:The course provides the student with knowledge about:- Basic design of Centrifugal pumps, Pelton-, Francis-, Kaplan- and gas-turbines.- Flow conditions and geometrical description of the main components in Centrifugal pumps, Pelton-, Francis-, Kaplan- and gas-turbines.- Cavitation in Francis turbines- Surge and chocking in compressors and gas-turbines.- The course gives the student insight about:- Basic design of Wind turbines, Reversible Pumpturbines, multi-phase pumps and wet gas compressors.- Main components in a Hydro Power Plant and Gas Power Plant.Skills:The course should enable the student to:- Calculate the main dimensions of hydro- and gas-turbines.- Evaluate which turbine to be used in a Hydro Power Plant or a Gas Power Plant.- Evaluate which pump or compressor to be used in a process-, gas- or a fluid-system.General competence:The course should give the student:- When the student has finished the course, he/she shall have knowledge about Hydro turbines, Gas turbines, Pumpturbines, Centrifugal pumps and Compressors.- The student will be able to use this knowledge in projects where these turbo machinery is a part of for example a process system or a power plant.

Learning methods and activities
