- This paper presents a systematic study of important geometric parameters of mixed flow turbines and shows how they can be varied to achieve the optimum compromise between peak efficiency and off-design performance for any particular application. There is practically no published literature on this topic even though millions of mixed flow turbines are produced annually.The paper concludes with a series of design guidelines that the reviewers recognised as being valuable for the industry. The work was undertaken in collaboration with IHI Charging System (Heidelberg), and the PhD student has been employed by that company.
