in practice;
the steam MUST be in the superheated region before entering the turbine.
superheated steam means there is not moister in the steam (dry steam)
the reason is moister will damage the turbine blades.
in theory;
the hotter the temperature the better the efficiency (look up vapor power cycles)
work done by the turbine = the enthalpy (at temp. of steam entering the turbine)- the enthalpy at the turbine exist.
the efficiency = work done by the turbine / the heat input.
You say a steam generator. The equipment is actually a steam driven turbine coupled to a generator. Steam from the thermal source, either fossil fired or nuclear, drives the turbine which is mechanically coupled to the generator which produces the electrical output
turbine is considered there as a prime mover.this turbine will be driven bt STEAM OR HYDRAULIC OIL OR ELECTRICALLY so that when it is coupled with a pump it works creating a pressure or vaccum enough to pump the fluid.
A turbine is a rotary machine driven by blades or paddles that are turned by a moving stream of water, steam, or gas.
Steam is produced. The steam pressure can be used to drive turbine or piston driven electrical generators.
The boiler heats water into steam. The steam is pressurized and fed into a turbine which causes it to rotate. As the steam turbine rotates, the connected generator rotates and produces electricity. Make Sense??? Please 'Recommend Contributor'
Why extractions are taken out from steam turbine.
A steam turbine/generator in a power station, a small gasoline powered generator, or a 12v alternator in your car driven by the engine.
becouse this steam is use repetdly for the turbine

The preventive maintenance of steam turbine mainly entails frequent servicing of the parts. This will ensure a smooth performance of the steam turbine.
