Abstract

Few standard radial inflow turbines have been developed through several designs and analysis. The efficiency of a radial inflow turbine is affected by many factors such as the velocity factor, selection of working fluid, blade angle, rotational speed of the turbine and number of rotor blades. In this study, the effect of the number of rotor blades on the performance of the radial inflow turbine has been performed.
