Mechanical Engineering :: Steam Nozzles and Turbines
-
In order to reduce the rotor speed of an impulse turbine, the method employed is
-
The nozzle efficiency is the ratio of
-
The friction in the nozzle __________ exit velocity of steam.
-
In a reaction turbine
-
A stage, in reaction turbine, is represented by
-
When the nozzle operates with the maximum mass flow, the nozzle is said to be
-
In a velocity compounded impulse turbine, when steam flows through the second row of moving blades,
-
The ratio of the energy supplied to the blades per kg of steam to the total energy supplied per stage per kg of steam is called mechanical efficiency.
-
A steam nozzle converts
-
The maximum discharge of steam through a convergent-divergent nozzle depends upon
A.
the steam is allowed to expand in the nozzle, where it gives a high velocity before it enters the moving blades |
B.
the expansion of steam takes place partly in the fixed blades and partly in the moving blades |
C.
the steam is expanded from a high pressure to a condenser pressure in one or more nozzles |
D.
the pressure and temperature of steam remains constant |
