TRACE User Guide
TRACE Version 9.6.1
|
The CFD code TRACE (Turbomachinery Research Aerodynamic Computational Environment) has been developed at DLR's Institute of Propulsion Technology since the early 1990s in order to study complex flows in turbomachinery. Within DLR, TRACE is the standard method for the simulation of internal flows. Outside DLR, universities and other research institutes use TRACE for the scientific analysis of turbomachinery flows. In addition, MTU Aero Engines and Siemens Energy employ TRACE in industrial design environments for the design and optimization of turbomachinery components.
The simulation system TRACE consists of the modules PREP, TRACE, and POST.
