Performance variation and loss mechanism of a radial inflow turbine under off-design conditions
Radial inflow turbines (RITs) are key expansion devices in organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems for low-grade waste heat recovery. Under practical operation, variations in heat source conditions and system loads cause deviations in inlet temperature, pressure ratio, and rotational speed, affecting turbine performance an...
