This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1908 Excerpt: ...on Fig. 224 by the lines X3X3 and X4X4 respectively. This turbine has a single casing, which is built up of three parts, D1, D2, D3, which are made in halves and strengthened by circumferential ribs. The high-pressure end of the cylinder is closed by the dished plate F to a flange on which is attached the steam-pipe A. Steam passages, a1, a1, are provided to allow of the steam reaching the first distributor or guide ring B1. This distributor consists of a series of nozzles which occupy a portion of the inner circumference of the casing. In these nozzles the steam expands and is directed on to the blades C1 of the first rotating disc c1. This disc is of thin steel slightly dished, and is attached to an annular flange formed on a hub mounted on the turbine shaft H. The disc is formed with a circumferential flange to which the blades are attached. Fig. 227 shows a method of riveting the rotating blades C to the flanged periphery V of the disc, two consecutive blades being shown. The pieces U are cast on to the blades at their flanged ends to stiffen them. It will be seen from the figures that the arrangement is very light. The blades are commonly of nickel steel stamped to shape and the steam-admission edge ground very sharp. The steam on passing the rotating blades C1 enters a chamber enclosed between the disc c1 and a diaphragm m2. This diaphragm extends from a hub, b2, which is an easy fit on the shaft to the nozzles B2. These nozzles are fixed to a casting which is attached steam-tight to the inside of the cylinder. The construction is such that the steam can enter the chamber only by way of the rotating blades C1, and can leave the chamber only by way of the nozzles B2. In these nozzles the steam is again expanded and directed on the second set of rotatin...
