Optimization of Curtis stage in 1 MW steam turbine
Institute of Fluid-Flow Machinery Polish Academy of Sciences, Fiszera 14, 80-952 Gdansk, Poland
When operating at 3000 rpm, small turbines do not require a gear box and the generator does not require complex electronic software. This paper analyses the various geometries of the Curtis stage, comprising two rotor and stator blades with and without an outlet, from the efficiency point of view. Presented are 3D steady viscous flows. The results were compared with the performance of an axial turbine.
