4. CONCLUSIONS It has been highlighted that the radial outflow turbine is a solution well matching with the typical ORC process characteristics, i.e. high molecular weight, low speed of sound and limited volumetric expansion ratio. Furthermore, for a 2 MW case with the rotational speed of 3000 rpm, a study of the fluid-dynamics of this configuration has been carried out, firstly with mean line 1D methods and then with a CFD 3D simulation. As a result of this analysis, because of the feature of having more stages on a single disk, fluid expansion is characterized by lower losses and dissipations compared to the axial turbine. Consequently, the radial outflow turbine in some ORC applications can be more efficient than the axial one. Future development of this work should focus on investigating the behavior of the ORC radial outflow turbine in off-design conditions, better if by a comparison with the axial overhung one.
