The Hero turbine is frequently said to be paricularly suited for two-phase geothermal-energy conversion. Its functional simplicity makes it an obvious candidate for use of a very low-quality steam-water mixture as a working fluid. The performance characteristics for the single-phase expander derived are extended to address two options for handling the two-phase mixture in the Hero turbine. The Hero turbine is found to be best suited to fluids that are single-phase at the entrance to the turbine and to expansions that involve low enthalpy change. The turbine appears well suited to saturated liquid expansion in which the fluid becomes two-phase after entering the turbine.
