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
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]
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]
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
