Abstract [English]

The process of geometry modeling of 3D turbine blades is basically related to the necessity of finite elements with high quality to be obtained, in the process of flow domain approximation. Various approaches for geometry modeling and grid generation, ways to attain elements of high quality and having positive volumes, have been under research and are presented in current paper. Developed methodology and established techniques to high quality grid, are implemented into practice, for geometry modeling of a wide range of turbine and compressor blades of complex geometry.
