Abstract
A method for geometrically designing a flow-conducting component, and a corresponding flow-conducting component, are provided. The flow-conducting includes a flow direction-changing surface arranged to change the direction of a flow by a certain angle from an inflow direction in a first section to an outflow direction in a second section, the flow direction-changing surface being formed corresponding to a contour of line segments having formed based on dependent triangulation between a bisector of the certain angle and sides of the first and/or second sections.

A method for the geometric configuration of a flow-guiding component, wherein the flow-guiding component effects a change of direction of a flow with a first angle from a second region to a first region, the flow in the first region having an inflowing direction and in the second region having an outflowing direction, comprising the acts of:
- identifying on a bisector of the first angle at a point of intersection of a second line perpendicular to a second region line defining a second side of the first angle with a first line perpendicular to a first region line defining a first side of the first angle;
- identifying a mid-point of a third line, the third line extending at a second angle between the point of intersection and the second region line on a side of the second perpendicular line away from an origin point of the first angle;
- identifying a mid-point of a fourth line, the fourth line line extending at a third angle between the mid-point of the third line to the second region line on a side of the third line away from the origin point of the first angle;
- identifying a mid-point of a fifth line, the fifth line extending at a fourth angle between the mid-point of the fourth line to the second region line on a side of the fourth line away from the origin point of the first angle;
- and
- constructing the flow-guiding component with a flow direction-changing surface corresponding to a contour of line segments from the point of intersection of the first and second perpendicular lines to the mid-point of the third line, thence to the mid-point of the fourth line, thence to the mid-point of the fifth line and thence to the second region line.
A flow-guiding component, comprising:
- a flow direction-changing surface configured to change a flow direction of a flow over a first angle between a first region in an inflowing direction and a second region in an outflowing direction,
- wherein
- the flow direction-changing surface is constructed along a contour of line segments, and
- the contour of line segments is defined by serial connection of
- a first line segment extending between
- a point of intersection on a bisector of the first angle, the point of intersection being defined by intersection of a second line perpendicular to a second region line defining a second side of the first angle with a first line perpendicular to a first region line defining a first side of the first angle and
- a mid-point of a third line extending at a second angle between the point of intersection and the second region line on a side of the second perpendicular line away from an origin point of the first angle,
- a second line segment extending between
- the mid-point of the third line and
- a mid-point of a fourth line extending at a third angle between the mid-point of the third line to the second region line on a side of the third line away from the origin point of the first angle,
- a third line segment extending between
- the mid-point of the fourth line and
- a mid-point of a fifth line extending at a fourth angle between the mid-point of the fourth line to the second region line on a side of the fourth line away from the origin point of the first angle.
