🔍 Key Concepts

• Identify visual differences between impulse (Curtis) stages and reaction (Parsons) stages in turbine diagrams. • Note how ahead and astern elements are usually arranged on a low‑pressure (LP) turbine rotor. • Consider where a steam deflector/shield would be located relative to ahead and astern blading, and how it would be drawn in a sectional illustration.

💭 Think About

• From the illustration, what features show whether the LP ahead blading is impulse or reaction type (look at the shape/spacing of the moving vs stationary blades)? • Where on the rotor is the astern element located, and does it look like a small grouped impulse (Curtis) stage or multiple repeated reaction stages? • Do you see any solid disk or plate between the astern and ahead groups that could act as a steam deflector, or is the steam path continuous?.

✅ Before You Answer

• Count how many rows of blades are in the astern section and how they are grouped; compare with a typical Curtis multi‑row impulse stage. • Check whether the ahead stages all look similar and evenly spaced (typical of Parsons reaction stages) or like a few grouped rows with large nozzles (typical of impulse). • Look specifically for any separate plate or shield between the clearly astern blades and the ahead blades before deciding on options mentioning a deflector.

Question 1 of 20

Which of the following statements is true concerning the turbine shown in the illustration? Illustration SE-0016

A steam deflector is provided between the astern element and the ahead stages of the LP turbine.

The astern element is of the Curtis type consisting of two three-row stages.

The ahead rotor can be classified as a helical flow, Parsons type turbine.

The low-pressure turbine is designed with reaction type stages.
