Abstract

Design of modern turbomachinery relies on application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (=CFD). Based on Navier-Stokes solvers developed by the author and used in actual design systems an overview will be given on code validation requirements. Steady-state and transient flow field results in cascades of axial turbomachines will be presented.
