About Turbomachinery Laboratory at Hanyang University

We are pioneering technologies to enhance efficiency and performance in advanced and emerging propulsion and power systems. As specialists, we engage in research, development, design, and analysis of rotordynamics, bearings, seals, and dampers. Our expertise extends to extremely high-speed rotor systems, thriving even in hot or cryogenic temperatures, encompassing rocket engine turbopumps, microturbines, and turbochargers. We are committed to delivering reliable solutions and continually exploring the forefront of innovation!
