Compressor simulation

February 16, 2006, 01:01

Hi All,

I am currently doing a simulation on a centrifugal compressor using CFX10.0. I've got the volute and impeller modelled in Solid Works. I managed to mesh them using CFX Mesh. The problem I face is that in CFX Post, I am unable to initialise the stator part of the compressor i.e. the volute. The impeller part i.e. the rotor, can be initialised. The warnings I get are 1. Failed to get 'outlet curve'. 2. Failed to get outlines for turbo regions of domain 'S1'. 3. Failed to initialize component 'S1' in domain 'S1' for conversion type 'Cartesian to Turbo'. I would be extremly greatful if any one of you experts out there could help me solve this problem as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Devendran Poobalasingam

Although 12 years have passed. I also want to know whether you have solved the problem? I met same issue too.
