It is observed that the efficiency is mostly affected by the LE angle followed by the GV angle and TE angle. The LE angle being an effective parameter on Figure 10. Local sensitivity of input parameters at the optimum design point. Local sensitivity of the both CT and CA, has a positive effect on the efficiency due to its higher impact on the torque coefficient input parameters on the: (a): Flow coefficient; (b) Input coefficient; (c) Torque coefficient; (d) than the input coefficient. The negative effect of the GV angle can also be explained by its effect on the Efficiency. input power and flow coefficient terms. It should be noted that changes to the combination of input parameters lead to the optimum It should be noted that changes to the combination of input parameters lead to the optimum design point, however, the 3D response of efficiency based on the two most sensitive parameters (LE design point, however, the 3D response of efficiency based on the two most sensitive parameters (LE angle and GV angle) is illustrated in Figure 11. This figure shows that the optimum efficiency was angle and GV angle) is illustrated in Figure 11. This figure shows that the optimum efficiency was identified clearly within the specified variation bounds of these two parameters. identified clearly within the specified variation bounds of these two parameters. 30 Figure 11. Turbine efffificiency response versus the most sensitive input parameters. 6.1. Comparison of the Initial and the Optimum Outflow Turbine Geometries 6.1. Comparison of the Initial and the Optimum Outflow Turbine Geometries After finding the optimum design for the outflow turbine, its operation was compared to the After finding the optimum design for the outflow turbine, its operation was compared to the initial outflow geometry determined in Table 2. A comparison of the flow rate versus total pressure initial outflow geometry determined in Table 2. A comparison of the flow rate versus total pressure drop of the initial and the optimised geometries is illustrated in Figure 12a. It is clearly shown that drop of the initial and the optimised geometries is illustrated in Figure 12a. It is clearly shown that for a given range of the total pressure drop, the optimised geometry acts more resistive to the flow for a given range of the total pressure drop, the optimised geometry acts more resistive to the flow rate than the initial geometry. Considering the local sensitivity figure of the flow coefficient shown in rate than the initial geometry. Considering the local sensitivity figure of the flow coefficient shown Figure 10a, the flow rate is mainly affected by the GV angle and the setting angle. According to the in Figure 10a, the flow rate is mainly affected by the GV angle and the setting angle. According to the geometrical characteristics of the initial and the optimised designs (as mentioned in Tables 2 and 3 geometrical characteristics of the initial and the optimised designs (as mentioned in Tables 2 and 3 respectively), both geometries have a close GV angle. Thus, the higher resistance of the optimised respectively), both geometries have a close GV angle. Thus, the higher resistance of the optimised geometry can mainly be due to its 10 degrees higher LE angle compared to the initial geometry. For the geometry can mainly be due to its 10 degrees higher LE angle compared to the initial geometry. For same reason, the input coefficient of the optimised design (Figure 12b) is significantly higher than the same reason, the input coefficient of the optimised design (Figure 12b) is significantly higher than thatoftheinitialdesign,whichcanbeduetothedecreasedflowvelocityatthemeanradius(V )of R that of the initial design, which can be due to the decreased flow velocity at the mean radius (􏵽 ) of 􏵾 the optimised design. The term V , as shown in the Equation (2), has a reverse impact on the input R the optimised design. The term 􏵽 , as shown in the Equation (2), has a reverse impact on the input 􏵾 coefficient values considering (Q = ARVR). Comparison of the velocity contours in the rotor domain of coefficient values considering ( Q = ARVR ). Comparison of the velocity contours in the rotor domain of both geometries ∆P0 = 1400 Pa, in Figure 13, clearly illustrates the lower air velocity at the mid-chord of the optimised design.
