5 Questions
What is the purpose of turbine technology?
To extract the maximum energy from the working fluid with maximum efficiency
How does the pressure energy of steam transform in a turbine?
It converts into high velocity kinetic energy
What gives rise to a force in the turbine?
Change in momentum due to the change in direction of motion of steam particles
According to Newton’s Second law of motion, what is the relationship between force and momentum?
Force is perpendicular to the rate of change of momentum
How does the higher kinetic energy of steam result in the turbine operation?
Emission of a high velocity jet of steam that impinges on the moving blade
