In stean turbines can the steam exhausted out of the turbine can be used in other turbine?

No. The steam exhausted has neither the pressure(Force) nor the temperature. The steam at inlet is at high pressure say 20-65-?? bar having a temperature of 265-530C. This pressure forces the turbine wheels to rotate and in the process loses pressure and expands. The different stages of turbine wheels are rotated by the steam having less and less pressure and finally after losing its strength(Pressure) it is let out at 0.1 bar. At this stage the roaring lion has been subdued to a country mouse. The Temperature is also around 45C- almost hot water.
Hence this exhaust is condensed back into water and is snt back to boiler to regains strength(Pressure).
Yes this exhaust can be used if such a low temperature can heat up the rooms.

Is jacking oil required when stopping steam turbines?
jacking oil is not required when stopping the steam turbine
What is hunting in steam turbines?
When the steam turbine can not maintain its selected or designed speed.Type your answer here... Speed fluctuating from low to high speed continously.
How does a Ljungstrom steam turbine work and look like?
Ljungstrom Turbine is a Radial Outflow Steam Turbine with two counter rotating discs. Blades are mounted in circles one bigger than the other. Blades of one rotor work as nozzles for the other rotor blades. This turbine design is very forgiving on wet steam. It is said that the turbine design had limitations on scaling up above 30 MW and hence could not compete with Axial Flow Turbines.
Where turbine is located?
Turbines are attache to either alternator or generator which converts mechanical energy to electric energy. Turbines convert the kinetic energy into mechanical energy. (Eg. steam turbine is a prime-mover in which te potential energy of the steam is transformed into kinetic energy and latter in its turn is transformed into the mechanical energy of the rotation of the turbine shaft)
Why don't nuclear subs use electric motors instead of steam turbines?
nuclear power makes hot water which turns into steam. instead of turbine how about a generator..
How steam turbines be classified?
1) Impulse turbine 2) reaction turbine
What are the two basic types of steam turbines?
impulsive turbine reaction turbine
What is the control stage in steam turbines?
The control stages are the stages at which steam is admitted to or extracted from the turbine. These "control" the output of the turbine.
Which type coupling used in steam turbine?
Membrane-type flexible coupling is used in steam turbines.
Is jacking oil required when stopping steam turbines?
jacking oil is not required when stopping the steam turbine
What three things can spin a generators turbine?
Superheated steam, which comes as a result of burning fuel such as coal or using nuclear fuel. This is steam which has been heated to a temperature above the waters normal boiling temperature, so has a high pressure to enable it to drive a turbine.
When were steam turbines developed?
The modern steam turbine was developed in the late nineteenth century to replace them. Westinghouse shipped its first steam turbine in 1897, a few years before rival General Electric.
What are the pros and cons of installing two 7.5 MW steam turbines versus installing only one steam turbine of 15 MW.?
Two turbines will require duplication of the equipment which supports the turbines - the steam piping or gas burners to drive the turbines, the condensate or exhaust systems to handle the turbine discharge, the lube oil systems, and the instrumentation to monitor and control the two turbines. These are all cons since the cost of duplicated equipment is roughly double. Two small turbines provide improved reliability over one large turbine since when the turbine has to be shut down for maintenance or repair, one of them can continue to operate. This is a pro for two turbines.

What is steam velocity in turbine?
That is how fast the steam is actually moving in the turbine. For impulse turbines it is twice as fast as the turbine blades. In reaction turbines it is the same speed as the blades. Because the blades of a turbine cannot move faster than 4500 feet per second without self destructing as it overcomes the centripetal force of the turbine wheels, the steam turbine is designed such that no turbine will exceed more than ~1150 feet per second on its tip speed. Thus the steam velocity through the turbine will be less than ~1150 fps for a reaction turbine and less than ~2300 fps for an impulse turbine, or about ~1570 mph, more than twice the speed of sound.
