correctly predict the system behavior; on the other hand, non-classical dense gas phenomena could be exploited to improve efficiency: namely, shock formation and subsequent losses could be ideally avoided, if the turbine expansion could happen entirely within or in the immediate neighborhood of the inversion zone. In fact properly operating the turbine in the very neighborhood of the curve, the flow field evolves almost entirely within the inversion zone, and is shock-free: as a result, except for viscous drag, the flow remains isentropic through the entire cascade. Unfortunately, the inversion zone has a quite limited extent: therefore, a reduction in the temperature jump between the heater and condenser stages is generally required in order to completely operate the turbine within the inversion zone. Now, it is well-known from thermodynamic theory that a too small temperature jump implies low thermal cycle efficiency. Moreover, a small temperature (i.e. enthalpy) jump also means low cycle power output. This important drawback has been the stumbling block to the development of real-world BZT Organic Rankine Cycles. In practice, BZT gas effects can find application in ORC turbomachinery only finding a reasonable trade-off between the above opposite requirements. Then, two ways are possible to reduce the losses in the ORC: the use of particular fluids for which the compression shock are forbidden or anyway very reduced; the optimization of the geometry in order to maximize the efficiency. In the present work, these two aspects are analyzed in deep. Dense gas flows over an isolated airfoil and over a turbine blade are analyzed in order to understand the effects of freestream conditions of pressure and temperature on the aerodynamic performances, and the role played by BZT effects. The second aspect is related to shape optimizations, performed to maximize some aerodynamic properties on the optimal geometries. The state of art for the dense gases numerical simulation will be presented in the next paragraph, followed by the brief description of the Chapters. 1.1. State of Art In this paragraph the state of art on the numerical simulation of dense gas flow is described, including the contribution made by the author, and the brief description of all the results achieved. The most important among them will be presented widely in the Chapter 4. This section is divided in three paragraphs. The first two concern the fluid- 20
