Abstract:
1. A high-performance turbine, particularly with increased specific power, comprising a rotor and a distribution apparatus which is adapted to convey a fluid stream onto said rotor for its rotation about its rotation axis, said rotor comprising a plurality of thrust ducts adapted to receive said fluid stream conveyed by said distribution apparatus to generate a rotary thrust on the surrounding walls of said thrust ducts, further comprising at least one slot, which is formed on the walls of said thrust ducts and/or of said distribution apparatus and is adapted to connect said fluid stream to the environment outside the turbine, at least one of said thrust ducts and said distribution apparatus crossed by said fluid stream comprising at least one portion that converges in a direction in which said fluid stream travels, which is defined upstream of said at least one slot in the direction of travel of said fluid stream for the at least local lowering of pressure inside said thrust ducts and/or said distribution apparatus, which are crossed by said fluid stream, below a value of a pressure of a filling fluid of said outside environment, with consequent suction of said filling fluid into said thrust ducts and/or said distribution apparatus, which are crossed by said fluid stream, wherein said rotor comprises a circular and substantially cylindrical body delimited by a first flat portion and a second flat portion, said thrust ducts being formed between said first flat portion and said second flat portion and being arranged evenly with respect to each other according to an angular sequence that is defined with respect to said rotation axis.
