Syed Mughees Ali

Dear Olusegun,

Commwercially available softwares like fluent and open source softwares like OpenFoam are available for this purpose. Kindly be more specific for further details.

Navid Bagherinejad

you can use turbogrid for mesh and analysis with fluent or cfx softwares to simulate the gas turbine.
