Goals and content

Learning objectives:	Students will be able to explain the structure and function of thermal turbomachinery in detail and assess the areas of application of these machines. They will be able to describe and analyze the tasks of the individual components and assemblies. Students are able to assess and evaluate the influence of physical, economic and ecological boundary conditions.
Course content:	General principles of thermal turbomachinery Steam turbine system analysis Gas turbine system analysis Combined cycle power plants and combined heat and power plants Mode of operation of turbo machines: General overview Working principle of turbines: Energy transfer in the stage Types and design examples of turbines Flat straight blade grids Spatial flow in the turbine and radial equilibrium Compressor stages and outlook
Prerequisites:	None. Recommended in combination with the lecture 'Thermal Turbomachinery II'.
Workload:	Attendance time: 31.50 h Self-study: 64.40 h
