About this Research Topic
Fluid machinery is a machine that converts energy with fluid as a working medium, including pumps, compressors, gas turbines, fans, etc. Due to global warming and other factors, people have begun to pay attention to carbon emission levels in the atmosphere. As a significant energy consumer, the operating efficiency of fluid machinery is directly related to carbon emissions. Therefore, the optimization design and efficiency of fluid machinery are increasingly valued. With the continuous development of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and interdisciplinary research methods, scholars have proposed many new methods and ideas for the optimization of fluid machinery and its systems.
This Research Topic in Optimal Design and Efficiency Improvement of Fluid Machinery and Systems aims to bring together the latest research results in the field of fluid machinery, focusing on the internal flow, structural optimization and efficiency improvement of fluid machinery and systems. Summarizing these results can provide new ideas for research and application in the field of fluid machinery. This Research Topic encourages the submission of original research and review articles.
The scope of this Research Topic includes the following themes, but is not limited to:
• optimization design of fluid machinery and systems;
• efficiency optimization of fluid mechanical systems;
• effectiveness evaluation method of fluid machinery and systems;
• unsteady flow of fluid machinery and systems;
• multiphase flow in fluid machinery.
Keywords: fluid machinery and system, design and optimization, efficiency improvement, unsteady flow, computational fluid dynamics
