Piero Colonna mostly deals with Thermodynamics, Organic Rankine cycle, Mechanical engineering, Rankine cycle and Mechanics. His research in Organic Rankine cycle intersects with topics in Working fluid and Sensitivity. His Working fluid study combines topics in areas such as Turbine, Thermodynamic model and Shock wave.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Process engineering and Power station. His studies deal with areas such as Dynamic simulation and Steam-electric power station as well as Rankine cycle. Many of his research projects under Mechanics are closely connected to Materials science with Materials science, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His most cited work include:

  • Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems: From the Concept to Current Technology, Applications, and an Outlook to the Future (201 citations)
  • Industrial trigeneration using ammonia–water absorption refrigeration systems (AAR) (115 citations)
  • Multiparameter equations of state for selected siloxanes (111 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mechanics, Organic Rankine cycle, Thermodynamics, Mechanical engineering and Power station. The Shock wave, Shock tube and Rarefaction research Piero Colonna does as part of his general Mechanics study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Materials science, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Organic Rankine cycle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Electric power system, Working fluid, Turbine, Thermodynamic cycle and Rankine cycle.

In his study, Ideal gas law is strongly linked to Polytropic process, which falls under the umbrella field of Thermodynamics. His research integrates issues of Thermal power station, Computational fluid dynamics, Dynamic simulation and Supercritical fluid in his study of Mechanical engineering. The concepts of his Power station study are interwoven with issues in Integrated gasification combined cycle, Control engineering, Modelica, System dynamics and Process engineering.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (25.00%)
  • Organic Rankine cycle (24.07%)
  • Thermodynamics (22.22%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Turbomachinery (11.11%)
  • Mechanics (25.00%)
  • Shape optimization (6.48%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Turbomachinery, Mechanics, Shape optimization, Organic Rankine cycle and Turbine. His Mechanics study incorporates themes from Dew point and Critical point. Piero Colonna has researched Organic Rankine cycle in several fields, including Turbocharger, Working fluid, Inflow, Thermodynamic cycle and Process engineering.

His Working fluid study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Automotive engineering and Waste heat recovery unit. Piero Colonna focuses mostly in the field of Process engineering, narrowing it down to matters related to System dynamics and, in some cases, Power station. As part of one scientific family, Piero Colonna deals mainly with the area of Rankine cycle, narrowing it down to issues related to the Expansion ratio, and often Mechanical engineering.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Method for the Preliminary Fluid Dynamic Design of High-Temperature Mini-Organic Rankine Cycle Turbines (24 citations)
  • Fluid-dynamic design and characterization of a mini-ORC turbine for laboratory experiments (15 citations)
  • Adjoint-based fluid dynamic design optimization in quasi-periodic unsteady flow problems using a harmonic balance method (14 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Mechanics

Piero Colonna focuses on Organic Rankine cycle, Shape optimization, Turbomachinery, Process engineering and Rankine cycle. The study incorporates disciplines such as Working fluid, Diesel engine, Simulation, Thermodynamic cycle and Truck in addition to Organic Rankine cycle. Turbomachinery is a subfield of Mechanics that Piero Colonna studies.

His work deals with themes such as Thermodynamics, Isentropic process and System dynamics, which intersect with Process engineering. Piero Colonna usually deals with Rankine cycle and limits it to topics linked to Heat recovery ventilation and Electric power system and Computational fluid dynamics. His Electric power system research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Propulsion, Degree Rankine, Control engineering, Turbine and Prime mover.
