Terry was the name of a steam turbine manufacturer. The company was bought by Dresser-Rand some years ago. I don't think they sell this model now, only spare parts.
The basic design is that of an impulse turbine (as opposed to a reaction turbine). The unique feature with Terry is the nozzles feed steam radially inward to a single rotating wheel with blading on the circumference. The blades are semi-circular so the flow path is spiral between the blades and the stationary nozzles. They are arranged in sets of an inlet nozzle with 4 or 5 reversing nozzles before the spent steam is exhausted. The number of nozzle sets depends on the steam rate.

How inefficiencies of compressor and turbine affect back work ratio and efficiency of gas turbine?
Inefficiencies in the compressor of a gas turbine cycle increase the back-work ratio and decrease the thermal efficiency of the gas turbine cycle, since they increase the compressor work.
What is a reaction steam turbine?
Steam turbine is when a device that has the extract thermal energy from pressurized steam. It is used to do mechanical work on a rotating output shaft. The steam turbine was invented by Sir Charles Parsons in 1884.
Explain why throttling is a wasteful process and how the turbine can be used to reduce steam pressure for process work?
a turbine would equally reduce the pressure and gain output work whilst mere throttling would not be of any benefit
What is HP and LP turbine expansion?

What is the defferences between a steam turbine gas turbine?
STEAM TURBINE is a machine for generating mechanical power in rotary motion from the energy of steam at temperature and pressure above that of an available sink. A turbine operated by highly pressurized steam directed against vanes on a rotor.HEAT ENGINE is a physical or theoretical device that converts thermal anergy to mechnical out put.....it converts heat energy into work.
What is the difference between turbine and machine?
the machine is the one that operates or makes the turbine work. the machine is the one that operates or makes the turbine work.
How inefficiencies of compressor and turbine affect back work ratio and efficiency of gas turbine?
Inefficiencies in the compressor of a gas turbine cycle increase the back-work ratio and decrease the thermal efficiency of the gas turbine cycle, since they increase the compressor work.
Why the temperature and the pressure of gas are decreasing after flowing out from turbine?
The gas (working fluid) having flown through the turbine does some work on the turbine, converting its thermal energy into mechanical work produced by the turbine and coming out as an expanding gas with lower temperature and pressure.
Show and label the components of the Hayward-Tyler-Terry steam turbine?
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.
What is a turbine working principles?
turbine is working on priciple of change of momentum. change of moentum result in to work.
What does turbine do?

What is the significance of isentropic turbine efficiency in the performance of a turbine system?
The isentropic turbine efficiency is important in determining how well a turbine system converts energy from the fluid passing through it into mechanical work. A higher isentropic efficiency means the turbine is more effective at converting energy, resulting in better overall performance of the turbine system.
What is the significance of turbine isentropic efficiency in the performance of a turbine?
The turbine isentropic efficiency is important because it measures how well a turbine converts the energy in the steam into mechanical work. A higher efficiency means the turbine is more effective at generating power, while a lower efficiency means there is more energy loss. This can impact the overall performance and output of the turbine.
Which energy output objects work with the turbine?
Turbines can work with a variety of energy output objects, such as generators, pumps, compressors, and propellers. The specific setup depends on the type of turbine and its intended application.

Why is it advantageous to use steam as hot as possible in a steam driven turbine?
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.
