1. Add a design mode wizard for combination inducer-radial pump design (i.e. "turbo pump" design)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Implement cavitation coefficient prediction using Stripling/Acosta (breakdown cavitation)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Refine preliminary correlation for head/efficiency degradation for cavitation effects
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Include Thermodynamic Suppression Head (TSH) effects in the calculations of NPSH in inlet designs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Allow inducer blading to be continuous through radial portion of a turbopump
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Implement simple vaneless radial/axial inlet configurations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Create estimates for hub and tip from meanline calculations for axial pumps
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. Add treatment model for stability control devices (SCDs)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. Add Gülich model
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
10. Implement a physics based design mode for exit elements (e.g. the user inputs a limited number of parameters such as diffusion ratio or pressure recovery along with exit swirl to obtain geometry) Note: multi-year project.
