Abstract: In this work, a real gas-based vaneless diffuser (VLD) differential equation model is presented. The model requires the specification of the skin friction coefficient as input. However, the use of standard VLD friction ...

Abstract: This paper analyzes the contribution of different turbomachinery loss mechanisms to the overall efficiency of a simple recuperated supercritical carbon dioxide (s-CO2) Brayton cycle for output capacities ranging from 100 ...
