- In this paper, the impact of pulsed flow on the performance of a mixed flow turbine stage for a turbocharger was investigated. Study of the entire stage had not previously been presented and therefore the variation in leading edge incidence and cycle average efficiency was not known. This work has given turbocharger manufactures a deeper understanding of the potential benefits of mixed flow turbine stages and provides valuable knowledge for the development of design methodologies. The work was undertaken in collaboration with BorgWarner Turbo Systems who are using the results to develop new design guidelines for mixed flow turbochargers.
