Abstract:To evaluate the location and main sources of energy loss in radial inflow turbines for organic Rankine cycle application, this study proposed a hierarchical entropy production method, which is superior to the traditional pressure drop method. The method includes three levels: local entropy production, split of turbine total entropy production, and split of component entropy production. The energy loss of the radial inflow turbine under design condition and different pressure ratios is presented. The results in… Show more
