• Radial inflow turbines, which look similar to centrifugal compressor, are considered suitable for application in small aircraft engines.• In many applications a radial turbine is used as an ideal companion to a centrifugal compressor.• Because of its shape, it is generally not feasible to employ cooling technology

• The flow is acceleratedthrough the stator from C1to C2 and normally is made to enter the rotor radially with velocity V2and leaves the rotor with relative velocity V3 and absolute velocity C3 axially

• The tip of the rotor the vanes are usually radial and straight. Immediately thereafter the vanes are given 3-D curvature to guide the flow, in an accelerated manner, to a lower radial station and finally let it out at an angle β3 with velocity V3. • The rotational speed of rotor imparted by the gas has gone down from U2 to U3. The flow now assumes an absolute velocity C3 (which by design is made axial i.e. Ca3 ) and in many turbines is then axially diffused to a lower exit velocity C4.

At the beginning the hot gas flow is accelerated from C1 to C2 through the outer ring-nozzle blade passages. No work is intended to be done during this fluid flow.
Thus, total enthalpy across the ring-nozzle remains constant,

In an ideal flow with no losses, P01= P02. In an ideal flow static point in the diagram would fall to 2’, which would have resulted in a flow velocity of C’
2 > C2. Due to the losses suffered by the flow the nozzle exit velocity is less than the ideal.

• Depending on the size and rotor rpm, the deference between U2 and U3 could be large and the first term could be a major contributor to the work transfer. • In most cases V2 and V3 are either same or there could be flow acceleration in the relative frame of reference, V3 > V2 . Thus, the second term could be either zero or could be a positive contributor to the work transfer. • The third term, kinetic energy differential between entry and exit of turbine, is always a small contributor to the work done.

• In case of axial machines it has been found that relative total enthalpy terms across the rotor may be considered to remain constant. • However, in case of radial flow machines because of significant change in radius between the entry and exit the relative total parameters need to be modified. The concept of Rothalpy is introduced as the modified parameter.
