Abstract: A method for operating a steam power station is provided. The steam turbine power station includes at least one steam turbine and a process steam consumer, wherein a steam mass flow is subdivided into a first partial mass flow and a second partial mass. In a first operating state, the first partial mass flow is supplied to the steam turbine and the second partial mass flow is supplied to the process steam consumer. In a second operating state, at least part of the second partial mass flow is supplied to the steam turbine at least after the first turbine stages. A steam power station is also provided.

Abstract: A tubular housing for a turbomachine is provided. The tubular housing includes two half-tube shells which, lying against one another in two connecting regions overlap partially in each case in the tangential direction of the tubular housing. In order to specify a particularly reliable and permanent connection of the two half-tube shells which additionally develop a particularly satisfactory sealing action, it is proposed that, in order to interlock the half-tube shells in the tangential direction, in relation to the tube axis of the housing, at least one eccentric pin is provided in one or both connecting regions.

Abstract: A diffuser arrangement through which a fluid may flow is provided. The diffuser includes an outer diffuser comprising an inner surface, and a flow-guiding device, which is configured such that at least part of the boundary layer flow forming on the inner surface of the outer diffuser can be accelerated in the main flow direction, so that a flow separation is prevented on the inner surface of the outer diffuser. Also provided are an exhaust steam plenum of a steam turbine and an exhaust gas plenum of a gas turbine, both including a diffuser arrangement.
