Design, computational and experimental investigation of a small-scale turbopump for organic Rankine cycle systems

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Sajjad Zakeralhoseini

The hydraulic design, computational analysis, and experimental investigations of a high-speed small-scale turbopump for mobile waste heat recovery applications based on organic Rankine cycle systems are presented in this paper. Such applications demand hig ...

Aerodynamic study of a Hyperloop pod equipped with compressor to overcome the Kantrowitz limit

Yohei Sato

This paper describes an investigation of the aerodynamic performance of a Hyperloop pod equipped with an axial compressor using CFD simulation. The compressor is expected to reduce the drag if the operational speed of the pod exceeds the Kantrowitz Limit ( ...

, ,

In compressor design, a convenient way to save time is to scale an existing geometry to required specifications, rather than developing a new design. The approach works well when scaling compressors of similar size at high Reynolds numbers but becomes more ...

Comparative study between Cubic and Ellipsoidal Fokker-Planck kinetic models

Mohammadhossein Gorji

Motivated by improving the performance of particle-based Monte-Carlo simulations in the transitional regime, Fokker–Planck kinetic models have been devised and studied as approximations of the Boltzmann collision operator. By generalizing the linear drift ...

Spatially Sampled Pressure Profile Measurements in Externally Pressurized Gas Journal Bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Eliott Philippe Guenat, Karim Magdi Zakaria Abdelrahman Shalash

Externally pressurized gas journal bearings (EPGJB) are widely adopted to support high speed rotors. This paper presents novel experimental benchmark test data which enables EPGJB model validation. Axial and circumferential pressure profile measurements ar ...

2018

Highly loaded impellers, typically used in turbocharger and gas turbine applications, exhaust an unsteady, transonic flow that is nonuniform across the span and pitch and swirling at angles approaching tangential. With the exception of the flow angle, conf ...

American Society of Mechanical Engineers2017

ORC driven Heat Pumps (HP-ORC) offer a promising technology of thermally driven heat pumps (TDHPs) for domestic applications. Recently, a 40 kW HP-ORC unit based on gas supported turbomachinery has been investigated in which the ORC radial turbine drives t ...
