5. 9. Establishing a methodology to investigate factors that affect Tip Leakage Loss : In a small scale Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) turbine

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

   Author : Anand Ashok Kaushik; [2022]
   Keywords : Ansys CFX; CFD; ORC; Turbines; Tip leakage; Internal flow; Loss; Entropy; Correlations;

   Abstract : With growing awareness and necessity for the world to move towards more sustainable (energy saving) forms of power generation, focus on the commercial use of Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) turbine systems has subsequently increased in turn. ORC systems with their modular design can thus help in recovering heat, obtained as a byproduct from a variety of industrial processes, and thereby increase their overall system efficiency.
