This lecture requires basic knowledge of turbomachinery. The focus of the chapter Steam Turbines is the design of the stages, taking into account the spatial flow, the stress of long, twisted blades, the wet steam and supersonic flow in turbine stages, the load change and turbine control as well as the steam extraction, tapping and the steam consumption diagram. In the subject area of gas turbines, the sub-components of the gas turbine plant, i.e. the compressors, the combustion chamber and the gas turbine, are examined in more detail and knowledge of the operating behaviour of gas turbine and combined gas and steam turbines is imparted.
