About Trex Primary Function: Mamanu o le Pepa Faʻasalalau

Trex o se pepa faʻasalalau ua mamanuina e faʻaali ai se afi fou e faʻasaoina ai le siʻosiʻomaga na atiaʻe e se kamupani turbomachinery. O le pepa faʻasalalau e 700 i le 1000 milimita le tele ma ua gaosia e ala i le lolomiga faʻakomepiuta. O le vaega vaaia e faʻamatala ai le auala e faʻaleleia atili ai e le afi le lelei o le mumu ma faʻaitiitia ai le maumau o le malosi i totonu. O se faiga air bearing e faʻatuputeleina ai le malosi o le compressor i le 30 pasene ma lagolagoina ai le faʻaogaina i se tulaga maualalo le faʻaoso o kasa leaga. O vaega e pei o le casing ma le alaea o le ea ua faʻafouina i pupuni B-Spline ma luga e faʻaleleia atili ai le lelei o le tafe o le ea. O le matematika ma le auiliiliga o malosiaga o le vai e lagolagoina ai le mamanu vaaia.

About the A' Design Award Ario

O le A' Design Award Ario na manumalo ai Trex Primary Function: Mamanu o le Pepa Faʻasalalau, o se faamaoniga matuā mamalu e tuuina atu i mamanu sili ona lelei, matagofie ma mataʻutia. O ē manumalo i le Ario o galuega susulu tele ma fatufatuaʻi e faaalia ai le poto, le taleni ma le atamai o tagata mamanu. E faamoemoeina Trex Primary Function: Mamanu o le Pepa Faʻasalalau e avea ma galuega matagofie, o se fesuiaiga mo isi, e iloga i le tomai faapolofesa ma mea fou loloto. O lenei mamanu na manumalo i le A' Design Award Ario o se mea e iloga, ua mataʻina e aogā ma tuleia atu tapulaʻa o le faatufugaga, saienisi, mamanu ma tekonolosi. Trex Primary Function: Mamanu o le Pepa Faʻasalalau o se mea e fiafia i ai le toatele, e fafagu ai manaʻoga, aumaia ai lagona lelei ma tupu ai le ofo.

Design Challenge
The challenges of this design are (a)the way of combination between science and art; (b)research about various properties of B-Splines.
Research
Trex is a new and environment-friendly engine product from Birmingham High Performance Turbomachinery. Compared with other engines nowadays, it improves combustion efficiency and reduces the internal loss of energy by radical engine configuration and design. Its Advanced air bearing system improves compressor power by 30% and provides a low emission running. Necessary parts are designed with B-Spline curves and surfaces, contributing to enhancing the airflow efficiency such as the casing, the inlet/outlet air ducts and so on. Like the lotus growing in the pond, Trex is the revolution of traditional engine design.
Inspiration

Project Duration
The project started in October 2018 in The United Kingdom and finished in July 2019 in The United Kingdom.
Operation Flow
It ideally echoes the role of mathematics as an interface between science and art, and demonstrates that B-Spline and CFD can form an excellent combination of science and arts and provide a powerful tool for creating and analyzing arts.
