About this document
Applications of Steam Turbines by arun is a document available to read on EtoBox.
A steam turbine converts thermal energy from steam into mechanical energy by rotating blades on a rotor. Steam turbines are used in power plants and ships to power generators and produce electricity. They are classified as impulse or reaction turbines depending on how the steam interacts with the blades. Power plants use steam turbines in the Rankine cycle, where steam is produced, expanded through the turbine, and condensed back into water to be reused.
