Profile loss and turbulence modelling in radial outflow turbine cascades [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Conference on Turbomachinery Fluid Dynamics and Thermodynamics, 2023
Radial outflow turbines (ROTs) offer an alternative for single stage high-work axial turbines in steam and organic Rankine cycle applications. Their main benefits are lower Mach number levels, improved design and off-design performance and improved capability to handle high volume flow rates.

Performance tests of the radial outflow reaction turbine for geothermal applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
A unique pure reaction turbine, for geothermal applications, has been developed. This radial outflow reaction turbine (RORT) is designed specifically to produce power from the expansion of saturated or compressed liquid at temperatures of less than 180/sup 0/C. In the tests reported here the highest efficiency measured was 32.7%, clearly below the peak

Comprehensive study on the design and analysis of supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) radial outflow turbines (ROTs), focusing on tip clearance effects, loss correlations, and performance evaluation

open access: yesApplied Thermal Engineering
Supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) energy cycles have significant potential to enhance the thermal efficiency of power systems compared to traditional steam and organic Rankine cycles (ORCs). The design and development of sCO2 turbines with higher efficiency can substantially improve the thermal-economic feasibility of future sCO2 power cycles ...

Loss generation in radial outflow steam turbine cascades [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Conference on Turbomachinery Fluid Dynamics and hermodynamics, 2017
Due to the fact that noise emitted by aero engines became a very important issue especially during the last few years, acoustic measurements were carried out downstream of the low-pressure turbine in a two-stage two-spool test turbine. The aim of these analyses was to determine the influence of small geometry changes in the flow path of the rig under ...
