It sends hot gases from the combustion chamber to the 1st stage turbine blades at the correct angle and speed
The purpose of nozzle in impulse turbine is to reduce the pressure and give more velocity to the working fluid
The nozzle expands the steam , increasing its velocity and redirecting the flow into the turbine blades.
Steam turbine nozzle clearance is the total energy content available in steam. This is through a valve.
The Steam Turbine is the one which steam worked pressured Hot and exited then the shaft of the turbine starts to and fro motion due which energy is injected through nozzle in the receiver.
A convergent-divergent nozzle is generally used in steam turbines. This is because it drives generators in producing electricity with the use of turbine rotors with curved axes.
The purpose of exhaust hood spray is to decrease the temperature of steam turbine last stage that is probably LP. This is operate on low load specially at start up and shut down of steam turbine when the temperature at the outer most edge of the turbine blades of that stage is very high and As we know that the steam flow also decrease The temperature of turbine blade.
in reaction turbine pressure compounding is employed as every stage has a set of nozzle ring nozzle control is not feasible.

High Pressure Turbine
In a single stage steam turbine the steam is run through a nozzle to give it maximum velocity, thus the blades move at very high speeds, impractical for some applications, and only some of the energy is used, about 85-90%. In multi-stage or compound turbines the steam goes through a nozzle to increase its velocity, then after going through a set of blades, it is run through another nozzle to bring the steam back up to the correct velocity. After multiple stages there is no longer enough pressure left to up the velocity of the steam. This method increases the efficiency of the turbine and also decreases wear on the components caused by the high speed of a single stage.
Steam (under pressure) comes into contact with the blades of the turbine through which it is flowing and, by the direct application of force, causes the blades to move, turning the turbine shaft. The turbine coverts the thermal energy of the steam into (rotating) mechanical energy. Surf on over to our friends at Wikipedia using the provided link and get more info. Oh, and check out the pics! Answer it depends what type of turbine one is using types of steam turbine 1 impulse turbine 2 reaction turbine in 1 st one steam is completely expanded inside nozzle and all pressure energy get converted in to kinetic energy using this impulse force turbine runs. in 2nd steam is multiple stage blades are used where high pressure superheated steam gets expanded inside the turbine in each stage and after each stage velocity of steam increases. very high temperature superheated steam is reaquired because it has very high specific volume which helps in reducing mass flow rate of steam.
when increase the turbine pressure it s add to the rapture disc and it s will be broken and reduce the pressure.
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.
Why extractions are taken out from steam turbine.
it is used balance axial thrust on turbine rotor due to admitting of high pressure steam in to turbine. it basic purpose is to save thrust bearing.
