turbomekaniikassa
Turbomekaniikassa, often translated as turbomachinery or turbomechanics, is a field of engineering that deals with the study and design of turbomachines. Turbomachines are rotary machines that transfer energy between a rotor and a fluid. This energy transfer can be used to extract work from the fluid, as in turbines, or to impart work to the fluid, as in pumps and compressors. The core principles of turbomekaniikassa involve fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and mechanics.
Key components of turbomachines include rotors, which are rotating parts often equipped with blades or vanes,
Common examples of turbomachines include gas turbines, steam turbines, jet engines, centrifugal pumps, axial compressors, and
