General Introduction
This course focuses on developing students’ ability to understand the working principles and structural components of steam turbines, primarily by teaching the working principles, structural components,
and other aspects of steam turbines, thereby laying a solid foundation for students to engage in steam turbine operation and maintenance and other work as well as for their sustainable development.

This Course is for
1. Helping trainees master the structural components of the steam turbine.
2. Equipping trainees to master the working principles of the steam turbine.
3. Enabling trainees to master the factors affecting the economic performance of steam turbine operation.
4. Laying the necessary foundation for further learning of the knowledge and skills in steam turbine governing and operation.

Benefits of Learning

1. Being able to correctly identify the structural forms, materials, and assembly relationships of the main components of the steam turbine proper (such as rotor, cylinder, diaphragm, blades, bearings, etc.).
2. Understanding how to analyze the energy conversion process within a steam turbine stage, master core concepts such as internal efficiency and degree of reaction, and use them to explain performance variations under different operating conditions.
3. Being able to identify common loss types in steam turbines (such as throttling loss, leakage loss, wetness loss, mechanical loss, etc.), analyze their influencing factors, and propose improvement suggestions.
