Abstract: This paper reports extensive experimental results characterizing the supersonic expansion of an organic vapor in non-ideal thermodynamic conditions typical of organic Rankine cycle (ORC) turbines. Data are also employed to assess the accuracy of different thermodynamic models used to describe non-ideal expansions.
