The length of a blade depends on the style (impulse or reaction), the overall size of the turbine, whether it is an axial flow or radial flow turbine, and where the blade is located within turbine of an axial flow turbine. One thing that is constant: the length of the blade increases from the steam or gas inlet to the discharge of the unit. The profile will gradually increase in diameter from inlet to discharge.

What is the cooling system of gas turbine blade?
In order to enhance creep life of gas turbine blade, it is required to keep blade at lower temperature, hence internal cooling of blade is done.
What is the centrifugal force on a turbine blade if a London bus is hanging from the blade?
A ball park figure for the weight of a double decker bus might be about 15,000 kilograms. But to calculate the centrifugal force on a turbine blade with this hanging from it would require the blade length and the rotational speed of the turbine.
What are the main reason of turbine blade failure?
What are the main reason of turbine blade failure?
What is the wheel chamber pressure in turbine?
Resistance offered by turbine to the steam
What is a stage of a turbine?
one rotor blade and one stator blade make up a stage of the turbine. after crossing every stage the pressure of the steam reduces.
In a wind turbine - does increasing the blade length or decreasing the blade length increases the speed of the turbine?
Decreasing the blade length will increase the rotation speed, and thus the turbine speed ( for constant wind speed ).
What is the cooling system of gas turbine blade?
In order to enhance creep life of gas turbine blade, it is required to keep blade at lower temperature, hence internal cooling of blade is done.
How long is a rotor blade of a wind turbine?
The length of a rotor blade on a wind turbine can vary depending on the turbine size and design. On average, rotor blades can range from 116 to 328 feet (35 to 100 meters) in length for utility-scale turbines.
What is the centrifugal force on a turbine blade if a London bus is hanging from the blade?
A ball park figure for the weight of a double decker bus might be about 15,000 kilograms. But to calculate the centrifugal force on a turbine blade with this hanging from it would require the blade length and the rotational speed of the turbine.
How long are wind turbine blades in feet?
Wind turbine blades can vary in length, but they can range from about 100 to 300 feet long. The average length of a wind turbine blade is around 150 feet.
How long and how thick are wind turbine blades?
Wind turbines blades are about 15 meters long (average wind turbine) The thickness of the blade depends on the length of the blade. The width is about 10% of the length, in this case, would be about 1.5 meters thick.
What is another name for a turbine blade?
Another name for a turbine blade is a vane.
What does optimum rotor solidity depend on on a wind turbine?
it is definitely a function of chord length and blade radius
What is needed to turn the blade of a turbine?
Wind, water, steam or another liquid or gas.

What has the author Dwight Osten Ness written?

How long are the blade on a wind turbine?
The blades on a wind turbine can range from around 100 to 330 feet in length, depending on the size of the turbine. Larger turbines typically have longer blades to capture more wind energy.
