From the world’s most powerful steam turbine in operation to modular designs optimized for SMRs, our turbines are suitable for any reactor type from 50 MW to 1900 MW.
-
Increased efficiency
Our advanced 3D blading platform helps enhance the load grade and customize the flow path for project specific conditions and increased steam turbine performance.
-
High reliability
Advanced lifetime assessment procedures and long-term testing process increase our steam turbine reliability and availability.
-
Enhanced flexibility
Advanced fracture mechanic methods provide reliable lifetime assessment of the steam turbine components and increased cycling capabilities.
-
Full integration
Operational feedback is systematically applied across our entire modular turbine product portfolio to insure full integration.
Advanced steam turbine blading
Innovative blading technology is apparent in our:
- Modern, three-dimensional profile that results in higher steam power efficiency
- High pressure (HP), intermediate pressure (IP), and low pressure (LP) front stage blades that are milled from a single forging for excellent mechanical integrity and higher reliability
Deploying both impulse and reaction type blading technology to optimise performance and cost for maximum customer value.
Powerful last stage blades
Our enhanced last stage blade portfolio for steam turbines offers:
-
Dense staggered last stage blade sizes for project specific cold-end conditions and increased steam turbine efficiency
-
A robust module with enhanced grooves and blade attachments for higher turbine reliability
Single bearing efficiency
Our multi-casing steam turbines have a single bearing between each turbine section for:
-
Avoidance of load shifting for higher reliability
-
Efficient shaft alignment for reduced construction time
-
Shorter overall turbine shaft length for lower building costs
Steam turbine welded rotors
Introduced in 1930, our welded rotor technology has stood the test of time. We have engineered and manufactured the latest technologies to provide efficient and reliable steam turbines for nuclear applications.
- Appropriate forging material selection, based on temperature level at each section of the steam turbine
- Stress reduction during thermal transients for faster and more frequent load cycling capability
- Better access for ultra-sonic testing equipment, resulting in higher reliability
