A typical steam turbine power plant is divided into its heat sources, the boiler or steam generator, and the turbine cycle, which includes the turbine, generator, condenser pumps, and feedwater ...
The majority of the world’s electricity is produced by steam turbines consisting of a cascade of turbine blades designed to optimize the efficient conversion of kinetic steam energy to ...
Steam turbines have helped drive a large chunk of our technological development over the last century or so, and they’ll always make for interesting DIY. [Hyperspace Pirate] built a small ...
For many environmental enthusiasts, horizontal-axis wind turbines ... The blades of the generator are made from blue foam with a metal bar running through it for structure. Three of the blades ...
Specifically excluded from consideration are extraction turbines, automated start up/shutdown systems, turbine supervisory instrumentation, steam bypass systems and turbine water induction prevention ...
There are two basic types of steam turbines: impulse and reaction. Impulse turbines are used for smaller power-generation applications. Reaction turbines are used for industrial-scale power generation ...
Installation work has begun for the condenser in the turbine hall for the BREST-OD-300 lead-cooled fast neutron reactor at ...
