A turbo generator is an electric generator connected to the shaft of a turbine (water, steam, or gas) for the generation of electric power. [note 1] Large steam-powered turbo generators provide the majority of the world's electricity and are also used by steam-powered turbo-electric ships. [1] Small turbo-generators driven by gas turbines are ...
In 2018, the Dresser-Rand Government Business unit of Siemens Government Technologies was sold to Curtiss-Wright Corporation for $212.5 million in cash. [19] At the time of acquisition, Dresser-Rand was an exclusive supplier of steam turbines and main engine guard valves across all aircraft carrier programs.
The Siemens Energy Sector was one of the four sectors of German industrial conglomerate Siemens.Founded on January 1, 2009, it generated and delivered power from numerous sources including the extraction, conversion and transport of oil and natural gas in addition to renewable and alternative energy sources.
Steam's starting pressure and temperature is the same for both the actual and the ideal turbines, but at turbine exit, steam's energy content ('specific enthalpy') for the actual turbine is greater than that for the ideal turbine because of irreversibility in the actual turbine.
Power Machines company was established in the year 2000. Today it is a joint venture combining technological, industrial and intellectual resources of six world-famous Russian enterprises: Leningradsky Metallichesky zavod (established in 1857), Electrosila (1898), Turbine Blades’ Plant (1964), Kaluga Turbine Works (1946), Reostat Plant (1960) and Energomachexport (1966).
A steam turbine from MAN SE subsidiary MAN Turbo. In general, the two kinds of turbomachines encountered in practice are open and closed turbomachines. Open machines such as propellers, windmills, and unshrouded fans act on an infinite extent of fluid, whereas closed machines operate on a finite quantity of fluid as it passes through a housing or casing.
Moreover, the extra inlet-cooling kilowatt uses less fuel than the new turbine kilowatt due to the lower heat-rate (higher efficiency) of the chilled turbine. Other benefits may include the incrementation of steam mass flow in a combined cycle, the reduction of turbine emissions (SOx, NO x, CO 2), [21] and increase in power-to-installed volume ...
