Solvers ease machinery design
Streamline solver runs much faster than mesh-oriented systems by using through-flow calculations and allows the use of validated empirics.
SoftInWay has released set of new Streamline Solvers in the AxStream Turbomachinery Conceptual Design and Optimisation Suite New solvers give AxStream the ability to perform more detailed streamline analysis

Flow path software improves turbine efficiency
AxStream will be used to develop new steam turbines for specific industrial and power generation applications.
This is one of the most effective but complicated modelling tasks in flow path design practice.
The solvers allow axisymmetric analysis of multistaged flow paths for turbines and compressors.
Streamline solver runs much faster than mesh-oriented systems by using through-flow calculations and allows the use of validated empirics.
It allows the introduction of auxiliary elements in the flow-path, such as ducts, and inlet/outlet devices.
It allows the axisymmetric analysis of turbines and compressor flow paths with counter-rotating blade rows and users can calculate multistaged centrifugal/mixed compressor flow paths.
SoftInWay has also developed a new Euler 3D flow solver to determine 3D flow characteristics.
This solver provides the opportunity to quickly evaluate designs without having to go outside the design system to create mesh and perform 3D CFD.
