A method for driving a two-phase turbine 10 characterized by an output shaft 20 having at least one stage including a bladed rotor connected in driving relation with the shaft, and wherein a two-phase fluid is introduced into said one stage at a known flow velocity and caused to pass through the rotor for imparting angular velocity thereto, the speed of the rotor being controlled so that the angular velocity of the tips of the blades thereof is a velocity equal to at least 50% of the velocity of the flow of the two-phase fluid.
