 Q.1  A steam turbine converts the output from a steam generator into ? Ans.  A steam turbine is a device that converts the energy of high-pressure, high-temperature steam supplied by a steam generator into shaft work. Q.2  The energy conversion occurring in a steam turbine is a ______ step process ? Ans.  The high pressure steam first expands in a nozzle, gains velocity & then loses this velocity when it impinges on the blades. So it is two step process. Q.3  Depending on whether the back pressure is below or equal to the atmospheric pressure, how many types of turbines do exist? Ans.  Depending on whether the back pressure is below or equal to the atmospheric pressure, there are two types of turbines that exist- condensing & non-condensing turbines. Q.4  The overall steam turbine generator arrangement of a power plant is designated as ________ compound on the basis of shaft orientation. Ans.  The overall steam turbine generator arra...
