Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

A method is proposed for selecting the best ultralow-power turbine by means of structural and parametric optimization. The method is tested in the conceptual design of the turbine in the pneumatic starter of a diesel engine. The results are compared with optimization and numerical modeling of the flow in the turbine.
