Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is the "High temperature radially fed axial steam turbine." This invention relates to a radially fed axial steam turbine that features a cold inlet duct, which is axially displaced from a hot inlet duct. This design allows the cold inlet duct to receive cold steam from a cold inlet spiral and direct it into the hot inlet duct, forming a boundary layer of cold steam over the rotor's circumferential surface. This innovative approach helps reduce the maximum temperature exposure of the rotor.
Another significant patent is the "Axial turbine and method for discharging a flow from an axial turbine." This invention includes a plurality of expansion stages defined by stator and rotor blades, followed by an exhaust diffuser that collects and discharges the flow. The design incorporates non-axial symmetric portions in the expansion stages and/or the diffuser, enhancing the turbine's efficiency.
