Bethe–Zel'dovich–Thompson fluids (BZT) are characterized by negative values of the
fundamental derivative of gasdynamics for a range of temperatures and pressures in the …

This paper presents a new class of Bethe-Zel'dovich-Thompson fluids, which are expected
to exhibit nonclassical gasdynamic behavior in the single-phase vapor region. These are the …

The aerodynamic performance of a cylinder Pitot probe for velocity measurements in
compressible non-ideal gas flows, such as those encountered in Organic Rankine Cycle …

A numerical investigation of transonic and low-supersonic flows of dense gases of the Bethe–
Zel'dovich–Thompson (BZT) type is presented. BZT gases exhibit, in a range of …

The present work is devoted to the numerical study of dense gas flows in turbomachinery
and the assessment of their interest as working fluids in energy-conversion cycles. A …

Abstract Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC) are one of the most notable methods for waste heat
recovery at low to medium temperatures which leads to a cleaner environment. Organic …
