In order to improve the aerodynamic performance and the performance of off-design working condition, it is necessary to research the inlet flow rate influence to overall performance of steam turbine. This study uses CFD technology to numerical simulation the flow field of nozzle cascades passage at 80, 100, 120% flow rate, respectively. The simulation results indicates that the various flow loss of nozzle have a little change at 100% design working condition, have decreased at 80% design working condition and have increased at 120% design working condition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
