Turbomachinery

A section of Machines (ISSN 2075-1702).

Section Information

“Turbomachinery” is a Section of Machines (ISSN 2075-1702).

Led by Prof. Konstantinos G. Kyprianidis from Mälardalen University (Sweden), this section welcomes archival-quality, peer-reviewed research papers that advance state-of-the-art of turbomachinery technologies that are applied in propulsion and energy systems.

Research papers are expected to be full-length articles, both theoretical and applied, of considerable depth and with a focus on validation. Fundamental works with a strong mathematical focus must also have a strong relevance to turbomachinery engineering to be considered. Review papers on topics with significant interest to the community, as well as technical briefs and short communications, are also welcome.

Scope

The section covers the specific technical areas described below. Other emerging areas with clear relation to turbomachinery technology may also be considered.

Aircraft and marine engine technology including hybrid-electric and all-electric configurations, as well as turbochargers for automotive applications.
New and emerging technologies, including the use of H₂, ammonia, and other alternative fuels in turbomachinery applications.
Integration of electrical power systems as well as associated thermal management systems in turbomachinery-based configurations.
Power generation including steam turbines, organic-Ranking cycles, and the supercritical CO₂ cycle, as well as oil and gas applications.
Performance and techno-economic analysis of novel energy conversion cycles and integrated systems based on turbomachinery technology.
Combustion, fuels, and emissions in turbomachinery applications.
Aerodynamic design, analysis, and testing of fan, compressor, and turbine blading, including stall, surge, and operatibility issues as well as aeroacoustics.
Structures and dynamics including rotordynamics, bearings, and seals, as well as blading and aeromechanical instabilities, including vibrations and flutter issues.
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis, including hybrid AI approaches, applied to turbomachinery, boundary-layer development, measurement techniques, and cavity and leaking flows.
Diffuser and exhaust systems in turbomachinery applications.
Heat transfer phenomena and film cooling design, analysis, and testing in turbines.
Additive manufacturing and use of digital twin-based technology for design and optimization of turbomachinery applications.
Instrumentation and measurement techniques for turbomachinery applications.
Controls, diagnostics, prognostics, and integrated health management of turbomachinery-based engine systems.
