Forces on Steam Turbine Rotor
Topic: Forces on Rotor (Steam Turbine / Turbo-generator Rotor) The paragraph describes the various stresses and forces acting on a rotor during operation in a turbine or generator. 1. Centrifugal Stresses When the rotor rotates at high speed, each particle of the rotor experiences a centrifugal force acting radially outward.Read More
Steam Trap
What is steam trap? (Central BOE-2021) A steam trap is a valve that automatically discharges condensate from steam systems while preventing the escape of live steam. This is important because condensate can interfere with the efficient operation of steam systems by reducing heat transfer and increasing corrosion. Steam traps areRead More

Eccentricity of steam turbine
Eccentricity refers to the deviation of the centerline of a rotating element, such as a steam turbine rotor, from its true axis of rotation. In a steam turbine, eccentricity can be caused by a variety of factors, including manufacturing tolerances, wear, and uneven thermal expansion. Some of the effects ofRead More
