Course details

The Turbomachinery Design with AxSTREAM course provides the participants with a practical understanding of design and optimization of flow paths for turbomachinery equipment using AxSTREAM. During this interactive, hands-on workshop the engineers will use the AxSTREAM software to successfully perform preliminary design of turbomachinery flow paths, inverse and direct 1D/2D analysis and optimization, 3D profiling/stacking of the airfoils, 3D FEA and CFD, and export of results to 3D CAD programs.

About St.Hua Private School

St. Hua Private School is established in 1997 by a group of experienced graduates from recognized universities such as National University of Singapore (NUS) and Nanyang Technological University (NTU).

We specialize in the provision of professional technical education, such as Interior Design, Civil and Electronics Engineering, Information Technology, Programming and Digital Drawing. Our trainers are well-educated and experienced, with all of them holding at least a Masters degree from either local or overseas universities.

Additionally, most of our courses are subsidized by SkillsFuture credit, an initiative offered by the Singapore Government to upgrade Singapore Citizens’ skills by providing each citizen with $500 in funding to partake any eligible course they wish.

It is our responsibility to ensure that every student masters the relevant knowledge with ease and most importantly, have fun while doing so.

Ultimately, we aim to ensure that students are better equipped with the necessary skill sets to meet the requirements of society, to prepare them for the workforce and to enhance and elevate current workers’ skills so that they can better fit their current job and propel them to further heights in Singapore society.

Finally, St.Hua Private School is recognized and accepted by CPE (Council of Private Education) to practice as a private school from 9th January 2017 to 8th January 2021.
