Abstract

It is possible to use compressed air to drive air turbine, thus make the turbine drive generators to power. This paper makes a research on the feasibility of the air turbine experimental equipment with a brief introduction to its composition. The design of the nozzle flow passage and flow passage, measurement of airflow and calculation of power generation efficiency are described emphatically. Based on the result of calculation and experiment, this paper shows that the air turbine experimental equipment can generate electricity safely and steadily. Besides, measuring the efficiency of the air turbine generator set helps to promote the understanding of the engineering application of theoretical formula.
