Gas
Turbine Engineering Handbook
As the work factor increases, the exit swirl increases. Since the reaction of 0.5
leads to a high total efficiency, this design is useful if the exit swirl is not counted
as a loss as in the initial and intermediate stages. Impulse Turbine The ...

Turbine Handbook: Principles and Practice
In the impulse turbine W1 = W2. In the reaction turbine W2 = C 1 , and W1 = C2.
There are two types of impulse turbines: a velocity compounded impulse turbine
and a pressure compounded impulse turbine. The velocity compounded impulse
...

Mechanical Engineering: Fundamentals
This is the major difference between impulse and reaction turbine that pressure
remains constant while flowing over moving blades of impulse turbine and it
gradually decreases while flowing over the moving blades of reaction turbine.

Power Generation Technologies
This is the basis for the impulse turbine. The main type of impulse turbine in use
today is the Pelton turbine, patented by the American engineer Lester Allen
Pelton in 1889 (Figure 8.7). The Pelton turbine operates at its highest efficiency,
95%, ...
Impulse Turbine In impulse turbine, steam coming out at a very high velocity
through the fixed nozzle strikes the blades fixed on the periphery of a rotor. The
blades change the direction of the steam flow without changing its pressure. The
force ...

4.7.2 Remedy (i) To reduce the high–speed, more than one set of blades are
used. Such a setup s is called Compound Impulse Turbine. (ii) To attain
maximum efficiency, the exit velocity of steam jet is made twice the speed of the
blades upon ...

(i) In an impulse turbine, pressure drops only in nozzles and not in the moving
blades. In a reaction turbine the pressure drops through nozzle as well as moving
blades. (ii) Area of channel are constant. In reaction turbine the channel area is ...
