Supporting Multi-point Fan Design with Dimension Reduction
Pranay Seshadri, Shaowu Yuchi, Shahrokh Shahpar +1
Motivated by the idea of turbomachinery active subspace performance maps, this paper studies dimension reduction in turbomachinery 3D CFD simulations. First, we show that these sub…

An Aerodynamic Analysis of a Robustly Redesigned Modern Aero-Engine Fan
Pranay Seshadri, Geoffrey Parks, Shahrokh Shahpar
This paper documents results from a recent computational study aimed at de-sensitizing fan stage aerodynamics---in a modern, high bypass ratio aero-engine---to the effects of rear-…
