Overall thermal conductivity? for example, there are 3 layers made of different materials, having different thermal conductivities bonded with each other; conductivity of layer 1= k_1 = 1 W/m-K thickness of layer 1= t_1 = 0.004 m conductivity of layer 2= k_2 = 148 W/m-K thickness of layer 2=...

So the main issue is that I have this research paper and that has done some thermodynamic analysis of organic Rankine cycle, and designed it for 2 KW output...I don't understand the meaning of "designed it for 2 KW output", because using the input and output data of turbine from the research...

So I know the formula " W_turbine = m_flow rate * (H_in - H_out) " BUT is there any formula that utilizes the turbine volumetric flow rate (m^3/sec) at the outlet? The following data is available, I just need the formula... P_in= 2.36 Mpa P_out= 0.95 MPa m_flow rate= 0.02 kg/sec eff_turbine= 70...

So i am using the right formula... Thanks guys,

Have not seen "Volume flow rate in steam table" though, and its Organic fluid in my calculations.

Here is what I did; Volume flow rate at outlet(m^3/sec) = mass flow rate(kg/sec) / Densisty at turbine outlet(kg/m^3)

I am working Organic Rankine Cycle. I studied a number of research papers and in most of them, they have calculated outlet volume flow rate from the turbine or expander, but have not mentioned the calculations. So here are the available data; Pin = Turbine Inlet Pressure, 2.5 MPa Pout = Turbine...
