Excerpt from Steam Turbines: Practice and Theory The steam turbine, like the water turbine, is based on the principle that when a fluid is in motion its energy will be converted into mechanical work, if the fluid impinges on moving vanes which change its direction of flow and reduce its velocity; It differs from the water turbine in important particulars, however, due to the facts that water and steam have very different properties and that the steam turbine, like the steam engine, is a heat motor and must utilize the heat energy of steam. The Principle of the Water Turbine is illustrated in Fig.1, which shows the effect of a curved vane upon a stream of water. The lines w, R, V, etc., represent velocities and also show direction of motion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Although the steam turbine is a relatively new development in steam power-plant practice, it is already of great importance. Its adoption has, because of its economic superiority for many conditions, been very rapid. Today, turbines of different capacities ranging from 1 hp. up to 80,000 hp. are being effectively utilized for power generation. The number of turbines in use will soon exceed-if it does not already exceed-the number of reciprocating steam engines. It follows that all successful power-plant men must now be informed concerning these machines. Steam-tuebine Principles and Practice has been prepared, for the ''practical" man, to furnish this information. It has been written to provide the operating engineer, the plant superintendent, or manager with such steam-turbine information as he requires in his everyday work. The aim has been to treat only topics of two general classes: (1) Those with which a man must he familiar to insure the successful and economical operation of steam turbines.(2) Those a knowledge of which is necessary to enable a man - one who is not familiar with the details of its design or theory - to make a wise choice if he contemplates the purchase of a turbine. Only sufficient theory is given to insure a sound understanding of the principles of turbine operation. The ''design" of turbines is not treated at all. A working knowledge of arithmetic will enable one to read the book intelligently...
