Investigation of a Turbogenerator Based on the Vortex Expansion Machine with a Peripheral Side Channel

The creation of energy-saving turbogenerators is an essential component the development small energy systems. gradual growth interest in distributed electricity generation necessitates constant improvement these units. Moreover, they implement a more environmentally friendly method than when using microturbine units that use fuel to carry out work process. Nowadays, are created based on different types expansion machines, which have their advantages and disadvantages, given this article. Compared competitors, vortex machines good prospects necessary potential expand research produce turbogenerators. An experimental machine with peripheral-lateral channel ability change geometric parameters its flowing part was meet needs. Experimental studies were performed special stand air as working fluid. As result tests, data successfully obtained processed. They presented form tables graphical dependencies. nature influence thermodynamic flow efficiency turbogenerator it further improve create new clarified.
