In a wind turbine - does increasing the blade length or decreasing the blade length increases the speed of the turbine?
Decreasing the blade length will increase the rotation speed, and thus the turbine speed ( for constant wind speed ).
Why is the runaway speed of a hydraulic turbine always kept twice its normal speed?
The runaway speed of a hydraulic turbine is the speed at which the turbine coupled to the generator runs at the maximum possible speed due to loss of load and this happens until the shut off valves completely closes the discharge from the penstock. the runaway speed of the turbine is determined by the turbine designer and is influenced by the maximum discharge of water from the penstock, the combined inertia of the turbine runner and the generator and the flywheel. this factor can vary from 1.5 up to 3 times the nominal speed of the turbine and is determined by the turbine designer considering all the load parameters.
When was The Second Stage Turbine Blade created?
The Second Stage Turbine Blade was created on 2002-02-05.
Types of piping?
piping critical , non critical critical piping : where temperature ,pressure are high and sizes of pipe are big and piping connected to critical equipment( such pump,turbine compressor etc) non critical : other than criti
What is derivation of critical speed?
Critical speed is the speed in RPM at which a rotating machine will destroy itself by all harmonic vibrations coinciding at maximum vibration.
What is critical speed of turbine?
SPEED OF TURBINE IS DEPEND ON THE WATER PRESSUR(7BAR)
What is critical speed of steam turbin?
Answer:Turbine shaft material has its own natural frequency, when turbine rotates on such a speed that frequency of shaft become close to its natural frequency, machine causes noise & high vibrations because of resonance due to matching of frequency. Running of Steam "TURBINE" on this speed is avoided & this is called Critical speed. A turbine may have more then one critical speed, which may depend upon number of couplings.A second critical speed is when the Turbine blade tips approach the speed of sound. This effectively limits the speed of a turbine and explains why power plants tend to have turbines of the same capacity.Critical speed of the turbine is the rotor speed at which natural frequency of the assembled rotor (rotor shaft with discs, blades, shrouding strips etc in assembled condition) becomes equal to the operating speed. This is usually a expressed as a range (critical speed range).There are multiple critical speeds. However, the operating speed of the turbine may be above or below the first / lowest critical speed. Accordingly it is called as a flexible or a rigid rotor.Venkatesh
What is idle speed of turbine?
warm up speed of turbine,andthe minimum speed of turbine before loading is called idle speed.
What is steam velocity in turbine?
That is how fast the steam is actually moving in the turbine. For impulse turbines it is twice as fast as the turbine blades. In reaction turbines it is the same speed as the blades. Because the blades of a turbine cannot move faster than 4500 feet per second without self destructing as it overcomes the centripetal force of the turbine wheels, the steam turbine is designed such that no turbine will exceed more than ~1150 feet per second on its tip speed. Thus the steam velocity through the turbine will be less than ~1150 fps for a reaction turbine and less than ~2300 fps for an impulse turbine, or about ~1570 mph, more than twice the speed of sound.
What do you mean by whirl velocity of turbine?
Whirl velocity of a turbine is determined by how fast the turbine can turn when it is moving. This is a factor considered with airplane manufacturing. Whirl velocity is the number of times in a second that a turbine can rotate, moving at a given speed.
Which device controls the speed of the turbine shaft?
The device which control the speed of Turbine is Governor. The Governing system sense the speed of shaft & regulate the Fuel/ Motive fluid flow to the Turbine to maintain the set shaft speed.
What is Runaway Speed of hydraulic Turbine and how it is calculated?
The runaway speed of a water turbine is its speed at full flow, and no shaft load. The turbine will be designed to survive the mechanical forces of this speed. The manufacturer will supply the runaway speed rating.

What is the self-sustaining speed of gas turbine?
self sustaining speed is output of a turbine= input into compressor
Where is the turbine speed sensor on a 2001kia rio?
Where is the turbine speed sensor on a 2001kia rio with automatic transmission
Why you balance air compressor rotor of gas turbine at 1350 rpm where as its field rpm are15000?
If your compressor is running above its first or second critical (very likely) then you shoud balance it at its operating speed. You need to do a high speed balance. If you can only do this in situ (i.e not in the workshop) then you can use VibroNurse balancing software which is easy to use and free.
