IT is not accurately 535 c.... The water should be in the super heated condition... So we go to like a higher temperature region and also higher pressure region to change the steam as super heated steam and then the steam is allowed to expand in the steam turbine... now the power gained is much higher than the water flowes at saturated condition like (200 c - 300 c )... so only we are moving to higher temperature and higher pressure region
my LP turbine differential expansion increase ,when rated gland steam temperature maintain.
Why extractions are taken out from steam turbine.
In large turbines, a valve controls steam flow to groups of nozzles. The number of open valves controls the number of nozzles in use according to the load. A bar-lift or cam arrangement operated by the governor opens and closes these valves in sequence. Such a device is a multi-port valve. Using nozzles at full steam pressure is more efficient than throttling the steam.
Rankine cycle is used in steam turbine
Steam turbine nozzle clearance is the total energy content available in steam. This is through a valve.
why we are maintain vacuum in steam turbine at steam outlet or exhaust side
gland steam temp should be nearer to less than turbine lub. oil flash point.
my LP turbine differential expansion increase ,when rated gland steam temperature maintain.
A gland condenser on a steam turbine is a component designed to manage the exhaust steam and maintain a vacuum in the turbine's sealing system. It collects steam that leaks from the turbine's gland seals, condensing it back into water to reduce steam loss and improve overall efficiency. By maintaining a vacuum, the gland condenser helps optimize turbine performance and prevents air ingress, which can reduce efficiency and increase operational issues.
Water becomes steam at 100 degrees Celsius under normal atmospheric pressure.
When the steam turbine can not maintain its selected or designed speed.Type your answer here... Speed fluctuating from low to high speed continously.
The boiler heats water into steam. The steam is pressurized and fed into a turbine which causes it to rotate. As the steam turbine rotates, the connected generator rotates and produces electricity. Make Sense??? Please 'Recommend Contributor'
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.

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.
