In steam turbines, guide vanes are typically fixed in the turbine's stationary casing or casing sections, located before the rotor blades. Their primary function is to direct the flow of steam towards the rotor blades at the optimal angle, ensuring efficient energy transfer. By maintaining a fixed position, they help stabilize the steam flow and improve the overall performance of the turbine.
A simple turbine.Air is drawn into the engine continuously and compressed by a series of rotating blades. Fuel is sprayed into the combustion chamber and burnt increasing the gas temperature to around 1200C.The hot high pressure gas expands through a second set of blades mounted on the same shaft as the compressor blades. The energy of the gas is partially expended powering the compressor, but has a residual energy which is either expended as a hot jet (resulting in thrust) or which drives a further independent set of blades to power a propeller or other device.see http://www.rolls-royce.com/education/schools/how_things_work/journey02/index.html
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.
The first link has a picture of some of these vanes: first column, second row. VIGVs direct air into the first rotor stage. They have the effect of improving the difference between the mass flows at operating points in the mid-range and corresponding surge points (which are catastrophic points at which flow through the stage could spontaneously reverse). Please see the second link and third.

governor has 3 modes of operation 1.SPEED CONTROL MODE-before sychronisation the governor runs in speed control mode.guide vanes open up and the turbine runs in the rated speed.when the governor gets connected to the grid that is when it gets synchronised then the speed control mode terminates. 2.OPENING MODE-load is increased in this mode and teh machine runs in the rated speed only. 3.POWER CONTROL MODE-it has two modes.joint controller and indivisual controller mode.in joint controller mode all the machine works all together and in the indivisual controller one setup point is given to the governor and the guide vanes vary accordingly
Variable inlet guide vanes are typically found in axial compressors and turbines. They operate by adjusting the angle of the guide vanes to control the flow of air or gas entering the compressor or turbine. By changing the angle of the guide vanes, the system can optimize performance by altering the velocity and direction of the incoming fluid flow.

In axial flow compressors, the primary purpose of IGVs (fixed or variable) is to guide the airflow onto the first stage rotor blades at an appropriate or required angle of attack.
Air circulation vanes that surround fuel nozzles, causing a vortex in which fuel vapor is made to circulate and ignite more completely. See also swirl atomizer.Read more: swirl-vanes
Stay vanes are stationary vanes located at the entrance of a turbine or pump to guide the flow of fluid towards the rotating blades. They help control the direction and speed of the fluid entering the machine. Stay vanes work in conjunction with the rotating blades to efficiently convert fluid energy into mechanical energy.
A blade is a rotating airfoil, while a vane is a stationary airfoil. A set of blades is referred to as a rotor, while a set of vanes is called a stator. Compressors and turbines are comprised of alternating sets of rotors (blades) and stators (vanes).
Runway speed is the speed at full opening of guide vanes at nominal head and no load on Generator
Variable inlet guide vanes (VIGV) are typically used in satellite compressors to allow for capacity variation. These vanes can control the airflow entering the compressor, thus adjusting the compressor's capacity.
There are a lot of vanes in a human body. Everywhere you look on your body there probably will be vanes
there are three major types vanes are used for a centrifugal pumps those are 1.forward curved vanes 2.backward curved vanes 3.flat vanes
There is no standard collective noun for weather vanes, most likely because weather vanes are seldom found in groups.However, a place that sells weather vanes might have a display of weather vanes or someone who loves all types of weather vanes might have a collection of weather vanes.
