Genetic optimization of turbomachinery components using the volute of a transonic centrifugal compressor as a case study

One elementary part of a centrifugal compressor is the volute, which is located downstream the impeller. Its purpose is to collect the flow and increase the static pressure by converting kinetic energy into potential energy. Despite its significant effect onto the design point and operating range of...
