An optimization design of pump inducer by using three dimensional inverse design method, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) coupled with optimization technique was performed. Design of experiments technique and response surface methods were used to analyze design parameters such as loading distributions, meridional shape and number of blades to find out optimum values for suction performance. The analyzed suction performance of the inducers designed by optimum loading distributions showed better than that of original inverse designed inducer.
