Boilers operating below the critical pressure are generally fitted with a steam drum, which is known as the heart of the boiler. In the steam drum, the main objective is to separate the steam from the steam-water mixture, which is coming through the riser tubes. Basically In the boiler, the feed-water comes through the feed-water […]

Efficiency Efficiency in turbine is defined as the ratio of the amount of work done by the turbine to the amount of heat transferred to the turbine by the working fluid and the efficiency at which the heat is transferred to the turbine rotating blades is dependent on the ratio of moving blade velocity and […]
Theory: The steam turbine is the most versatile prime mover, which is capable of almost endless applications. A machine, which originates mechanical motion by using some natural force, is called prime mover. Steam turbine is a practical power source and is built in as small size as 5 KW to as large as 1300 MW. […]
