Turbomachinery is at the heart of aerospace propulsion systems, transforming chemical energy into kinetic energy for thrust and sustained flight. In pursuit of greater fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, and improved reliability, the aerospace industry continuously innovates in the design and optimization of compressors, turbines, and fans. This paper provides a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental design principles, engineering challenges, advanced computational tools, and optimization strategies used in modern high-performance turbomachinery. Emerging technologies such as additive manufacturing, AI-based optimization, and hybrid-electric integration are also discussed, offering a forward-looking perspective on next-generation propulsion systems.
