CHARACTERISTICS OF STEAM CONDENSATION IN TURBINE STAGES

Condensation of steam in turbines is analyzed under actual conditions, when the flow is disturbed by wake asymmetry and flow turbulence. It is shown that because of the combined effect of turbulence and unsteadiness, the zone with intense moisture precipitation becomes greatly enlarged and condensation starts before the Wilson zone.
