This paper presents the result of design optimization for three-bladed pump inducer using a three-dimensional (3-D) inverse design approach, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and DoE (Design of Experiments) taking suction performance and cavitation instability into consideration. The parameters to control streamwise blade loading distribution and spanwise work (free vortex or non-free vortex) for inducer were chosen as design optimization variables for the inverse design approach. Cavitating and non-cavitating performances for inducers designed using the design variables arranged in the DoE table were analyzed by steady CFD. Objective functions for non-cavitating operating conditions were the head and efficiency of inducers at a design flow (Qd), 80% Qd and 120% Qd. The volume of the inducer cavity region with a void ratio above 50% was selected as the objective function for inducer suction performance. In order to evaluate cavitation instability by steady CFD, the dispersion of the blade surface pressure distribution on each blade was selected as the evaluation parameter. This dispersion of the blade surface pressure distribution was caused by non-uniformity in the cavitation length that was developed on each inducer blade and increased when the cavitation number was reduced. The effective design parameters on suction performance and cavitation instability were confirmed by sensitivity analysis during the design optimization process. Inducers with specific characteristics (stable, unstable) designed using the effective parameters were evaluated through experiments.

Design and production of highly demanding structural systems, such as the chassis, still rely on conventional forming and welding approaches, both because of their proven performance and the economies of scale achieved. Nevertheless, manufacturing of several chassis’ segments is also expected to soon gradually switch towards AM, for increased design freedom and optimized performance. This paper proposes an alternative design approach for the A-pillar, a typical passenger car chassis segment; a design suitable in form for AM and equally capable in terms of its dynamic behavior, without undermining the chassis’ safety. Prior A-pillar designs along with already published innovative AM-suited design approaches are reviewed. Moreover, these serve as a starting point for an inverse design towards the intended new AM-suited A-pillar alternative. Emphasis is given in the dynamic characteristics of the new structure, through proper modal analysis performed. Finally, the presented research concludes with a scaled-down assessment and verification prototype of the new design, planned to be built via FDM 3D Printing. The prototype is expected to demonstrate primary, as well as secondary/latent benefits from the use of AM in A-pillars, such as the increased diagonal visibility for drivers and passengers, arising from the redesigned, mesh-like form of the segment.
