Experimental and numerical assessment of an optimised, non-axial wave rotor turbine

Applied Energy, 2020, vol. 268, issue C, No S0306261920305250

Abstract: Wave rotors exchange energy between different fluid streams via unsteady shock and expansion waves without the application of mechanical parts. This offers potential efficiency gains for a variety of thermodynamic cycles and applications ranging from refrigeration cycles to micro-gas turbines.
