Thrust pads are used to protect the steam turbine rotor from damage due to axial displacement due to axial thrust created by entry of steam in the turbine. generaly the pads clearence is 0.45mm for a bearing size 250mm.
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.
Two triple expansion steam engines and an exhaust turbine
Most electric plants use steam to turn a turbine which then turns a generator.
nuclear power makes hot water which turns into steam. instead of turbine how about a generator..
The difference is that geysers are way much hotter than the steam from hot springs. The geysers can give you 3rd degree burns. But so can the steam from hot springs if you're in there to long.

steam to turn the turbine
Jet steam is the pressure steam that is released by the nozzle of the jet engine. Using fuel and air to burn produces this steam that is hot and under pressure for the use of the turbine and provide the thrust needed.The above equations shows this. Normally the jet steam to be discharged is under high temperature and high pressure and it is used to give adequate thrust to the aircraft or to other vehicles having jet engines. Besides imparting thrust, the jet steam plays an essential role of cooling and thermal control of the jet engine.
he use bronze he use wood.
To drive a steam turbine which is coupled to an electrical generator
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.

# Bury the garbage. Let it decompose. It will generate methane gas. Capture the methane and use it to run an engine or gas turbine. Use the engine or turbine to turn the generator. # If the garbage is wood, grass, or other material that can be burned, then burn it. Use the heat to boil water into steam in a boiler. Use the steam to turn a steam turbine. Use the steam turbine to turn the generator. Both of these methods (and there are more) are already used world-wide to generate power.
The rocket engines ignited, providing the necessary thrust to lift the spacecraft off the launch pad.
Nuclear power plants use steam to turn a turbine that is connected to a generator. The steam is produced by heat generated from the nuclear fission process within the reactor. As the steam passes through the turbine, it causes the blades to spin, which in turn rotates the generator to produce electricity.
# Burn the oil, use the heat to boil water. # Use the steam from the boiling water to spin a steam turbine. # Use the steam turbine to turn an electric generator. This is the basic process a conventional power station uses to generate electricity.
