Introduction
Delivering goods that are secure, dependable, long-lasting, and technically superior is the aerospace industry’s constant priority. As a result, it consistently picks and adheres to highly strict safety and regulatory standards that are suited for their products. The performance, safety, and quality of the components are taken into consideration when choosing such norms. Different standards for different applications force design engineers to carefully craft their components to adhere to these specifications. The amount of complexity for the designers rises when the standards change arbitrarily with respect to each individual component and system. It even gets worse when it comes to the integration of every component into a single system. The use of advanced modeling and simulation techniques, like FEA, has become essential in order to tackle such complexities at an early stage and to address the requirement for better products with a shorter lead time to market.
FEA has evolved over the last few decades into a crucial tool for the aerospace industry. The use of FEA in the aerospace sector is prevalent in a variety of fields. It helps with issues like structural analysis of different aircraft structures (such as wings, rack cabins, overhead cabins, seats, etc.), electronics system cooling analysis, modal analysis, landing gear analysis, engine and nacelle component analysis, and component analysis of fuel and air handling systems.

CFD Analysis of The Axial Compressor and Axial Turbine
To assess the pressure and velocity distribution at the rotor and stator and the performance of the compressor and turbine for the given design parameter. A steady-state 3D CFD modelling approach with a SST K-omega turbulence flow model was chosen; the rotational domain and stationary domain are coupled using the mixing plane approach.
Axial Compressor simulation
Axial compressor simulation is a computational process used to model the performance of axial compressors, which are commonly used in gas turbine engines, turbochargers, and other applications that require high-pressure airflow. The simulation involves the use of mathematical models and numerical methods to predict the behaviour of the compressor under different operating conditions. The results of the simulation can be used to optimize the design of the compressor, improve its efficiency, and reduce its operating costs. Overall, axial compressor simulation is a critical tool for engineers and researchers working in the fields of fluid mechanics and turbomachinery.
Axial Turbine simulation
Axial Turbines are used in various industries, including power generation and aviation. Simulation of axial turbines involves modelling the flow of fluid through the turbine, including the interactions between the fluid and the turbine’s blades. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques are commonly used to simulate axial turbines. Through simulation, engineers can optimize the design of the turbine and improve its efficiency, performance, and reliability. Factors such as blade shape, blade angle, and rotational speed can be studied using simulation to determine their effects on turbine performance. Additionally, simulation can be used to identify potential flow problems, such as turbulence and pressure loss, and devise strategies to mitigate them. Overall, simulation is an essential tool for the design and optimisation of axial turbines.
