Steam is redirected back into the boiler from the high-pressure turbine for reheating, but the steam from the low-pressure turbine enters into a condenser to become water again.

The Hayward-Tyler-Terry steam turbine consists of several key components: the rotor, which houses the blades that convert steam energy into mechanical energy; the stator, which contains stationary blades that guide the steam flow; the nozzle, where steam expands and accelerates before entering the rotor; and the bearings, which support the rotor and allow it to spin. Additionally, the casing encloses the turbine, maintaining pressure and directing steam flow. Together, these components work to efficiently convert thermal energy from steam into rotational energy.
axial shift of a steam turbine is the shifting of turbine rotor in the forward and backward direction due to steam thrust on blades of rotor.
It is an engine.A steam turbine is a heat engine that uses the expansion of steam passing through stationary nozzles and blades on a shaft to turn the shaft. The steam can move through the turbine axially (one end of shaft to the other end), radially (shaft to outer casing), or tangentially (around the outer edges of the turbine wheel). In an impulse turbine, the steam is expanded in nozzles and pushes the blades. In a reaction turbine the steam is expanded in the nozzles AND in the blades, the reaction of the expansion of the steam pushes away from the blades spinning the wheel in the process. The expansion of the steam is necessary to increase its velocity through the turbine.
main two type of bearing used in steam turbine:(1)thrust bearing (2)general bearing
1. For lubrication the bearings 2. For controlling the turbine 3. For sealing
Thrust bearings are mounted on turbines at or near the end of the shaft, closest to the steam chest (or inlet). This is to maintain the shaft in position with the casing of the turbine, allowing the casing and the shaft to expand evenly together toward the drive end of the turbine.
Why extractions are taken out from steam turbine.
Steam is redirected back into the boiler from the high-pressure turbine for reheating, but the steam from the low-pressure turbine enters into a condenser to become water again.
The preventive maintenance of steam turbine mainly entails frequent servicing of the parts. This will ensure a smooth performance of the steam turbine.

why we are maintain vacuum in steam turbine at steam outlet or exhaust side
Steam turbine nozzle clearance is the total energy content available in steam. This is through a valve.
inconsistent load will cause steam turbine hunting.
