Steam Turbine

Steam Turbine

• The thermal energy is used in the steam generators/ boilers to convert water into steam
• The energy in the steam is converted into mechanical energy of a rotating shaft by a steam turbine
• The steam is passed through the high pressure (HP) turbine
• The exhaust steam of the HP turbine is passed through the low pressure (LP) turbine after removing its moisture through the moisture separator
• The mechanical energy of the steam turbine is converted into electrical energy by means of a generator
