Steam turbines are one of the most important equipment for generating electricity. A steam turbine is a rotating device that converts a large part of steam kinetic and thermal energy into mechanical energy for driving a generator. High-temperature steam from the boiler is fed to the steam turbine, where it imparts its energy to the rotor blades.

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses steam turbines and gearing as related to ships. The steam turbine has until recently been the first choice for very large power main propulsion units. Its advantages are little or no vibration, low weight, minimal space requirements and low maintenance costs. Furthermore, a turbine can be provided for any power

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1973
The heavy demand for electrical energy has required turbomachinery manufacturers to design and build steam turbine-generator units which can produce over 1000 MW. Based upon numerous field surveys and experimental programs conducted in the laboratory, this paper identifies the major sources of sound produced by large fossil and nuclear steam turbines ...

Marine Technology and SNAME News, 1969
The reasons are examined for the present increase in the number of marine propulsion turbines being ordered. The design of a range of turbines is discussed, with particular reference to single-cylinder turbines, control gear, and reduction gearing. It is shown that parallel developments are taking place in the design of marine turbine-generator sets ...

Journal of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, 1923
The paper is a review of the present position of the subject of steam turbine blading. Section (1) describes the causes and effects of corrosion and erosion. The most important materials in use are enumerated and compared. Section (2) deals with the form of the blade passage in impulse and reaction machines, and with the energy losses occurring in the ...

The modern steam turbines rotate at 1800 or 3600 rpm and produce a “shaft output” of 800–300 MW. Less than 50 years ago, a machine with the same rpm was rated at less than 200 MW. The underlying reason for the trend to large size is the economy of scale, i.e., the lower capital cost in dollars per kilowatt as size increases.
