Overview of Micro Turbojet Design

In this course, you will learn how to model a fully parametric micro turbojet engine using nTop. By using custom blocks, you can create a modular workflow that can be easily reused in other notebooks. This approach leverages robust implicit geometry to enable rapid design exploration and performance optimization.

Course Curriculum

The curriculum is organized into four lessons, each focusing on a key stage of the engine’s development.

1. Parametric Impeller: Learn best practices for creating stable geometry using Signed Distance Functions (SDFs). This lesson covers vane generation, exponential twist rates, and robust trimming techniques.
2. Combustion Chamber: Explore the use of parametrized polylines and profiles. You will learn how to create complex cooling hole arrays and utilize list processing to manage multiple internal features.
3. Parametric Bladed Disk (Blisk): Focuses on modeling turbine wheels, including the precise control of blade curvature and the integration of aerodynamic profiles with the central hub.
4. Parametric Housing and Component Placement: The final lesson covers the assembly of all engine components. You will learn how to parametrically place modules and design the engine housing to complete the micro turbojet.
