Performance Back-deduction from a Loading to Flow Coefficient Map: Application to Radial Turbine [PDF]
Radial turbine stages are often used for applications requiring off-design operation, as turbocharging for instance. The off-design ability of such stages is commonly analyzed through the traditional turbine map, plotting the reduced mass-flow against ...

Off-design considerations through the properties of some pressure-ratio line of radial inflow turbines [PDF]
Radial turbines are commonly used in applications involving operation through severe off-design conditions. The emergence of variable-geometry systems leads to the distinction between two off-design concepts: operational and geometric off-designs.
