This dissertation develops a methodology to design radial flow machine rotors operating under laminar flow by implementing a density-model topology optimization formulation. Rotor design includes fluid modeling via Navier-Stokes equations in a rotating reference frame and finite element method resolution. Material distribution uses a porous-flow Darcy-based model with inverse permeability to interpolate solid-fluid behavior. A multi-objective function minimizes viscous energy dissipation, vorticity, and power, with implementation in FEniCS and validation via ANSYS, followed by 3D-printed fabrication and experimental performance measurement.","LUÍS FERNANDO NOGUEIRA DE SÁ  \nTopology Optimization Method applied to Laminar Flow  \nMachine Rotor Design  \nSão Paulo  \nLUÍS FERNANDO NOGUEIRA DE SÁ  \nTopology Optimization Method applied to Laminar Flow  \nMachine Rotor Design  \nSubmitted in partial fulﬁlment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering  \nSão Paulo  \nLUÍS FERNANDO NOGUEIRA DE SÁ  \nTopology Optimization Method applied to Laminar Flow  \nMachine Rotor Design  \nSubmitted in partial fulﬁlment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering  \nField of Study:  \nControl and Mechanical Automation Engineering (3152)  \nSupervised by:  \nProf. Dr. Emílio Carlos Nelli Silva  \nSão Paulo  \nEste exemplar foi revisado e corrigido em relação à versão original, sobresponsabilidade única do autor e com a anuência de seu orientador.  \nSão Paulo,   de   de   Assinatura do autor:    \nAssinatura do orientador:    \nCatalogação-na-publicação  \nSá, Luís Fernando Nogueira de  \nTopology Optimization Method applied to Laminar Flow Machine Rotor Design / L.

Assim, melhorias de desempenho são fatores relevantes e podem ser alcançadas com a utilização de métodos de otimização, como a otimização topológica. Este trabalho visa desenvolver uma metodologia para projetar rotores de máquinas de ﬂuxo radiais que operamem escoamento laminar implementando-se a formulação de otimização topológica baseada no modelo de densidades. O projeto de rotores envolve, primeiramente, a modelagem doescoamento utilizando-se as equações de Navier-Stokes em um referencial rotativo e autilização do Método de Elementos Finitos para a resolução das equações diferenciais.
