Steam Boilers, Engines, Nozzles and Turbines In a reaction turbine The expansion of steam takes place partly in the fixed blades and partly in the moving blades The pressure and temperature of steam remains constant The steam is expanded from a high pressure to a condenser pressure in one or more nozzles The steam is allowed to expand in the nozzle, where it gives a high velocity before it enters the moving blades The expansion of steam takes place partly in the fixed blades and partly in the moving blades The pressure and temperature of steam remains constant The steam is expanded from a high pressure to a condenser pressure in one or more nozzles The steam is allowed to expand in the nozzle, where it gives a high velocity before it enters the moving blades ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Steam Boilers, Engines, Nozzles and Turbines Heating value of fuel used is as on fired basis. If it is reported for dry or moisture free fuel, then latter should be multiplied by the following factor to correct for as fired value (1 + moisture content) 1 + moisture content (1- moisture content) 1 – moisture content (1 + moisture content) 1 + moisture content (1- moisture content) 1 – moisture content ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
