A
steam
engine
is
a
reciprocating heat engine that
performs mechanical work by
using steam as its working
uid.
Steam engines are external
combustion engines based on
modied Rankine cycle, where
the working uid is separate
from the combustion products.

Classification of Steam
Turbine
1. Impulse turbine.
2. Impulse-reaction turbine.

Steam Turbine
Impulse Turbine
1. Pressure drops occur only in
nozzles.
2. It has constant blade channel
area.
3. It has profile type blades.
4. It can be used for small
power development.
5. It has lower efficiency due to
high losses.
Reaction Turbine
1. Pressure drops occur in
moving blades as well as fixed
blades.
2. It has varying blade
channel area.
3. It has aerofoil blade crosssection.
4.
A
considerable
power
developed is possible.
5. It has higher efficiency than
that of impulse turbines.

Process
12:
Isentropic
compression in the compressor thus
raising pressure and temperature
from P1, T1 to P2, T2.
Process 23: Addition of heat at
constant
pressure
raising
temperature from T2 to T3.
Process 34: Isentropic expansion
of air from high pressure and
temperature to low pressure and
temperature and thus doing work.
Process 41: Rejection of heat at
constant pressure to restore the
original state of air.
