Explores the technology, history and modelling of steam turbines. More on nozzle design, Victorian and Edwardian manufacturing methods, early machine tool operators, George Blackwood (1867-1938), machine bay in Turbinia Works of Parsons Marine Steam Turbine Co., about 1910, nozzles and steam flow rate, calculation of mass flow rate, measures of flow rate, units of measurement, rate of steam consumption, critical pressure, nozzle area, calculation of volume flow rate, output pressure below critical pressure, flow rate when outlet pressure is below the critical pressure, flow rate when outlet pressure is above the critical pressure, friction, previous nozzle sizing guidelines, divergent section of a C-D nozzle, references |
