A CFturbo project describes a complete single-stage machine or a single stage of a multi-stage machine. Flow-conducting parts of the machine can be designed by CFturbo.
The follwing project/ machine types are available:
| • | Pump |
| • | Ventilator |
| • | Compressor |
| • | Turbine |
A project consists of the global parts
and the single component parts of the assembly. The following components are available:
| • | 1 Impeller on any position |
| • | 1 Volute as last component |
| • | any number of Stators (vaned or unvaned) |

Components can be added directly in the components view or via the project menu.
Interfaces exist between neighboring components describing their coupling. The following coupling types are available:
|
Coupling in flow direction (Standard) Inlet cross section of a component is defined by the outlet cross section of previous component. |
|
Coupling reverse flow direction Outlet cross section of a component is defined by the inlet cross section of next component. |
Interface coupling can be adjusted in the component view directly at the interface position between neighboring components.
The impeller as the core component of a machine has primary interface sides both at inlet and outlet side.
