🔍 Key Concepts

• Axial expansion of turbine rotors and casings when temperature increases • How thrust bearings control rotor position and absorb axial thrust • Which components are designed to be flexible supports versus position indicators

💭 Think About

• Which of these components actually allows physical movement in the axial (fore-and-aft) direction when the turbine heats up and grows? • Which item’s main job is to measure or support rather than to provide expansion allowance? • In a steam turbine, what part is specifically designed so the rotor can move slightly without damaging the casing or misaligning the unit?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice is designed to absorb or permit axial movement rather than just indicate or measure it • Eliminate any option that mainly serves for monitoring or support but does not intentionally allow axial expansion • Think about which device is associated with controlling axial thrust and rotor position during operation
