Exergy's Radial Outflow Turbine
Conceptualized by EXERGY, The Radial Outflow Turbine (ROT) was launched in the market in 2009, becoming a world first in the ORC industry and recognizing Exergy as a game changer in the marketplace.
The key feature of the Radial Outflow Turbine configuration is the capacity to convert the energy contained in the organic fluid into mechanical power with higher efficiency than competing technologies on the market such as the traditional axial or radial inflow turbine.
Before the ROT, the main players of the ORC sector were focused on finding innovative solutions to improve the cycle efficiency, but were considering, the only two at the time available, turbine configurations: axial or radial inflow.
EXERGY’s innovative turbine design perfectly responded to the markets’ need for efficiency and performance in lower temperature heat sources application.
Most of the characteristics of Radial Outflow Turbine technology, covered by multiple IP rights, entail several advantages:
