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 ...

Profile loss and turbulence modelling in radial outflow turbine cascades

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.

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 ...

Numerical optimization of air breathing radial outflow turbines [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Conference on Turbomachinery Fluid Dynamics and hermodynamics, 2019
Small air driven alternators serve as a practical solution to be a power source for miniature electronic equipment. An air-breathing radial outflow turbine can be easily manufactured and implemented to a variety of terrestrial and aerial vehicles for auxiliary power generation. The flow characteristics of such turbines need to be understood in order to
