1. Which of the following statement is wrong?
Options
A. The critical pressure gives the velocity of steam at the throat equal to the velocity of sound.
B. The flowin the convergent portion of the nozzle is sub-sonic.
C. The flow in the divergent portion of the nozzle is super-sonic.
D. To increase the velocity of steam above sonic velocity (super-sonic) by expanding steam below the critical pressure, the divergent portion for the nozzle is not necessary.
Correct Answer: To increase the velocity of steam above sonic velocity (super-sonic) by expanding steam below the critical pressure, the divergent portion for the nozzle is not necessary.
2. A single stage turbine is not used because it requires large reduction gearing due to very high rotational speed.
Correct Answer: relative velocity at the inlet of the moving blade is equal to that at the outlet
5. A nozzle is said to be a convergent-divergent nozzle, when the cross-section of a nozzle first decreases from its entrance to throat and then increases from its throat to exit.
10. For a Parson's reaction turbine, if ?1 and ?2 are fixed blade angles at inlet and exit respectively and ?1 and ?2 are the moving blade angles at entrance and exit respectively, then
