[0002] In the field of power cycle, centripetal turbines are turbomachinery used to convert the thermal energy of the working fluid into the mechanical energy of the machine. Due to their compact structure, high heat-to-work conversion efficiency, and high single-stage enthalpy drop, they are widely used in aerospace, thermal power generation, and waste heat recovery. Due to the complex internal flow and high impeller linear velocity of centripetal turbines, their aerodynamic and structural optimization has always been the goal of academia and industry in design, manufacturing, and operation. Therefore, a more efficient and rational structure has always been the goal pursued by centripetal turbine designers.
[0003] Currently, the design of centripetal turbines generally includes design methods based on load coefficient and flow coefficient, as well as design methods based on reaction degree and speed ratio. However, the design parameters in these methods are usually selected based on the designer's accumulated experience, and the design process is constrained by many factors. Moreover, even with existing experience, multiple design and revisions are still required to obtain a reliable design method, which greatly increases the R&D cycle and design cost of centripetal turbines. Furthermore, the design results obtained based on the above methods can only serve as feasible solutions within the design space, making it difficult to deeply explore the optimal solution.

The relative tangential velocity at the impeller outlet is m / s; The impeller outlet relative meridional velocity is given in m / s.
[0144] Step 5: Based on the aerodynamic and geometric parameters of the preset components in the centripetal turbine to be designed, and using a pre-built neural network model, obtain the evaluation efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed. Specifically, the aerodynamic and geometric parameters of the preset components in the centripetal turbine to be designed are used as input data and input into the pre-built neural network model, and the evaluation efficiency η of the centripetal turbine to be designed is output.
[0145] Step 6: Determine whether the evaluation efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed has converged; if it has converged, determine whether the evaluation efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed has reached the optimal level; if it has not reached the optimal level, update the initial design vector based on the genetic algorithm until the evaluation efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed reaches the optimal level, and obtain the optimized design vector.
[0146] Specifically, the evaluated efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed is compared with its initial efficiency. If the relative deviation between the evaluated efficiency and the initial efficiency is less than or equal to a preset efficiency convergence threshold, the evaluated efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed has converged. Otherwise, the evaluated efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed has not converged. The initial efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed is the total efficiency of the centripetal turbine to be designed.

Specifically, based on the optimized design vector, calculate the maximum stress and maximum deformation of the preset components in the centripetal turbine to be designed; determine whether the maximum stress and maximum deformation of the preset components in the centripetal turbine to be designed meet the material strength requirements of the preset components.
[0152] The specific process is as follows:
[0153] The maximum stress and maximum deformation of the preset components in the centripetal turbine to be designed are compared with the material strength index of the preset components. If the maximum stress and maximum deformation of the preset components in the centripetal turbine to be designed are less than or equal to the material strength index of the preset components, then the preset components in the centripetal turbine to be designed meet the material strength requirements, and the optimized design vector is output as the design optimization result of the centripetal turbine to be designed. The design optimization result of the centripetal turbine to be designed also includes the impeller profile data generated based on the optimized design vector. Otherwise, return to step 2 until the preset components in the centripetal turbine to be designed meet the material strength requirements.

Based on the experimental data of the centripetal turbine and the database of loss models, the neural network model is trained using the database. At the same time, the turbine efficiency is used as the target variable to complete the design of the centripetal turbine. This avoids the design scheme relying too much on traditional models and improves the accuracy of the optimization design results. In Embodiment 1, through coupled structural optimization design, the aerodynamic performance of the centripetal turbine can be improved while ensuring the rationality of the structure, realizing the integrated aerodynamic-structural design.
