🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between turbine efficiency and steam temperature/quality • Difference between saturated, superheated, and wet steam • Why moisture (water droplets) is harmful to turbine blades

💭 Think About

• Which type of steam contains no water droplets and is hotter than the boiling point at that pressure? • What happens to turbine blades if liquid water droplets are present at high speed? Which option would reduce that problem? • For maximum thermal efficiency in a main propulsion turbine, do engineers prefer steam with just-boiling temperature or higher-than-boiling temperature at the same pressure?

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure you know the definition of saturated steam versus superheated steam • Think about which steam condition gives highest energy per pound of steam going into the turbine • Eliminate any option that would intentionally send liquid droplets through high‑speed turbine blades
