    Steam Turbine Data

    Dear Edward, Thank you very much for your helpful advice. Actually my biggest concern was regarding the inherent considerations (if any) I need to observe for such an equipment. That's great if I can treat it like other normal rotary equipments I've worked out so far. I don't know the nozzle...

    Steam Turbine Data

    Dear Edward, Thank you for your kind explanations. The coordinate system is missing in the supplied data and I'll ask for it in future correspondence. However, you're most probabely right as I look at the nozzle displacements. I haven't faced a turbine system yet and that's why I wasn't familiar...

    Dear All, I'm evaluating the vendor data required for pipe connections to turbine nozzles. Each page contains to tables. The upper table (In the bottom right hndd corner) there are summations for applied moments. I don't know what Z*Fy or y*Fz mean in the following: SIGMA(z*Fy) + SIGMA(y*Fz) +...

    Very High Weight on Supports

    Dear Friends, I'm analyzing a 52" heavy walled (45mm thk.) gas export line with the design pressure of 100 bars. Although I've tried so much to reduce the system weight applied on pipe supports, I'm not satisfied yet as I can't find the reason for such high loads in hydrotest (WW+HP) load case...
