Does the turbine have a performance curve?
Thread Content
As the title suggests, do turbines (radial-flow, centrifugal type) have performance curves similar to those of centrifugal pumps and centrifugal compressors? If available, the operating point of the turbine can be determined based on the actual parameters during operation, thereby allowing an assessment of its performance. Thank you!
Yes, turbines (radial-flow, centrifugal type) do indeed have performance curves similar to those of centrifugal pumps and centrifugal compressors. These performance curves typically include parameters such as flow rate, head, power, and efficiency, and can be used to evaluate the operating condition of the turbine. By using the parameters from actual operation, its operating point can be determined, and it can be compared with the performance curves to analyze its operation status and efficiency. .
