  • Disabling circuit in steam turbines for shutting off saturated steam
    Patent number: 9726041
    Abstract: A cooling option for a steam turbine is provided, wherein the steam turbine includes a high-pressure zone and a medium-pressure zone, wherein the saturated steam streaming out of the high-pressure zone is discharged via a saturated steam conduit to a first pressure chamber in a second flow channel of the medium-pressure zone and thus the possibility of the saturated steam causing damage by corrosion and erosion in the high-pressure zone is prevented.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 14, 2011
    Date of Patent: August 8, 2017
    Assignee: SIEMENS AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT
