MUMBAI, India, April 20 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202421030416 A) filed by Hrimtron Energy Systems Pvt. Ltd., Pune, Maharashtra, on Oct. 16, 2024, for 'enhancing energy efficiency with real-time control in radial inflow turbine systems.'

Inventor(s) include Rutik Anil Padmawar; and Samyak Parmeshwar Sawargaonkar.

The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a Radial Inflow Turbine system (9) in an Organic Rankine System (102) includes a stator (7) in a ring configuration and a rotor assembly (2) with aerodynamic blades to reduce drag and enhance energy transfer. It features a tachometer (3) for real-time shaft (5) speed feedback and a gearbox (6) driven by a stepper motor (4) for precise angle adjustments. The gearbox (6) connects with stator (7) for uniform vane angle adjustments. A hermetically sealed housing (8) maintains the working medium in a gaseous state and prevents leakage. The system integrates pressure sensors (10), temperature sensors (11), and gas flow meters (12) to monitor parameters, alongside control valves (13) and gear adjustments to regulate fluid velocity and vane angles. The present invention discloses a method (200) for real-time operational optimization of system (9) integrated within an ORC (102) comprising a plurality of steps."
