Question
Steam issues from the nozzles of a de-Laval
turbine with the velocity of 920 m/s. The nozzle
angle is 20°, the mean diameter of the blades
is 25 cm and the speed of rotation is 20,000 r.p.m.
The steam flow through the turbine is 0.18 kg/s.
If the ratio of relative velocity at outlet from the
blades to that at inlet is 0.82. Calculate,
(a) Tangential force on blades per second
(b) Workdone on blades per second
(c) Power of the wheel
(d) Efficiency of blading
(e) Axial force on blades
(f) Inlet angle of blades for shockless inflow
of steam
Assume that the outlet angle of blades is equal
to the inlet angle.
