🔍 Key Concepts

• Cross-compound or tandem-compound marine steam turbines and how the high-pressure (HP) and low-pressure (LP) turbines share steam flow • What happens to steam after it exhausts from the high‑pressure turbine in normal operation • Proper way to route HP turbine exhaust when the low‑pressure turbine is not in service

💭 Think About

• Think about the usual steam path: from boiler to HP turbine, then where does the steam normally go next, and where must it go if the LP turbine is not being used? • For safe single‑turbine operation, would you want to block steam to the HP turbine, the LP turbine, or change the exhaust routing? Why? • Ask yourself which arrangement allows the HP turbine to do useful work and still condense the steam properly without over‑pressurizing any part of the system.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which choice actually allows only the high‑pressure turbine to operate and still send exhaust steam to a condenser or further use point • Check which options would incorrectly block or mis‑route steam, making operation with only the HP turbine impossible or unsafe • Confirm that the correct setup must still maintain a proper condenser connection for the steam leaving the operating turbine
