For an axial flow turbine, where U2 = U1, no contribution to the specific work is obtained from this term. A positive contribution to the specific work is obtained from the second term when w3 > w2. In fact, accelerating the relative velocity through the rotor is a most useful aim of the designer as this is conducive to achieving a low loss flow. The third term indicates that the absolute velocity y at rotor inlet should be larger g than at rotor outlet so as to increase the work input to the rotor. 14 @ M S Ramaiah School of Advanced Studies, Bengaluru 5 Design Guidelines The Th PEMP RMD510 nominall design d i defined is d fi d by b relative flow with zero incidence at rotor inlet, i.e. W2 = Cr2, and axial absolute flow at rotor exit,, i.e. C3 = Cx3 Thus, with Cw3 = 0 and Cw2 = U2, the specific work for the nominal design is Spouting Velocity: The term spouting velocity, C0 (originating from hydraulic turbine practice) is ddefined fi d as that h velocity l i which hi h hhas an associated i d ki i energy equall to the h kinetic isentropic enthalpy drop from turbine inlet stagnation pressure p01 to the final exhaust pressure. When no diffuser is used or With complete recovery of the exhaust kinetic energy, and with Cw2 = U2, At the best efficiency point, generally, 0.68 < U2 / C0 < 0.71. 14 @ M S Ramaiah School of Advanced Studies, Bengaluru 6 Design Guidelines The PEMP RMD510 blades are aligned along the radii for much of their length. Absolute flow angle at rotor inlet = Nozzle outlet angle = ~ 70º. Absolute Ab l flow fl angle l at exducer d exit i = 0º. 0º Inlet relative velocity should be aligned to the blade direction at inlet, which means that it should be radial. However, this may lead to high aerodynamic loading at the tip as the blade tips are open, such high pressure loading can not be maintained Max. efficiency in radial inflow turbines is achieved when inlet flow angle is modified by the concept of ‘slip’ or ‘deviation’ as applied to radial compressors.
