ABSTRACT:
A radial inflow turbine is disclosed utilizing a star wheel type of blade and wherein the inlet nozzles are located along the sides or lateral of the blade tips rather than located radially beyond the blade tips. The side approach enables the turbine to include an annular chamber outside of the moving blades and where small particles are centrifuged during operation and collected. The incoming hot gases, that propel the blades, pass through approximately a 90.degree. turn and continue radially inwardly. The large particles hit the turbine blades and are projected outwardly into the annular chamber for collection and subsequent removal while the smaller particles may be centrifuged in the stream of gas and immediately thrown outwardly. The turbine is capable of removing particles to as small as 2-3 microns (.mu.m).
