Popis: These peculiarities necessitate refinement of the prevailing procedures for calculating the characteristics of radial gas turbines [1-3]. The calculation was based on the fundamental laws of energy and mass conservation [i, 3, 4]. For this purpose the following designations were adopted: G~ rate of gas flow through the turboexpander, kg/sec; ~, isoentropy index; F, area of the flow-through section, mm2; L, vane height, mm; a, minimum size of the channel neck, m~n; c, absolute gas velocity, m/sec; w, gas velocity in relative motion, m/sec; T, thermodynamic stream temperature, ~ %, reduced stream velocity; ~, pressure ratio in the turboexpander; p, pressure in the stream, MPa; u, peripheral velocity, m/sec; ~, stream density (degree of reactivity), kg/m~; e and 8, stream exit angle respectively for absolute and relative motion, deg; ~, inverse radiality ratio (discharge coefficient); ~, coefficient of speed in the guide apparatus; ~, coefficient of speed in the impeller; z, compressibility factor; ~s, isoentropic efficiency; M, Mach number.
