Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for modeling fluid flow in a turbomachine. A specification of a system is received. The system includes multiple passages, where the multiple passages include at least an inlet guide vane, a rotor, and a stator. A computational grid is generated with a processing system based on the received specification. Governing flow equations for the system are transformed based on inclination parameters, where each passage of the system has an associated inclination parameter. A rotational velocity of rotating passages included in the system is specified, and a time-step for stationary passages included in the system is specified. Time-steps for the rotating passages included in the system are computed, where the time-steps are computed based on pitch-ratios for adjacent passages of the system. A solution for the system is advanced in time by solving the transformed governing flow equations across the computational grid using computer-based numerical calculations.
