Abstract: An exhaust hood for a steam turbine includes a bearing cone; an annular flow guide; and an external casing surrounding the bearing cone and the flow guide. Meridional shapes of the flow guide at respective circumferential positions are shapes obtained by rotating one representative shape around an upstream end of the representative shape in a meridional plane and by reducing or maintaining a radial length of the representative shape. A circumferential distribution of inclination angles of an upstream end of the flow guide with respect to a center axis of a turbine rotor of the steam turbine has representative inclination angles at respective representative positions in the circumferential direction. The circumferential distribution between the representative positions is defined by a linear interpolation. Each representative position is a position where the inclination angles change from increasing or decreasing to decreasing or increasing, or from constant to increasing or decreasing.

Abstract: An exhaust system for a steam turbine provided with an improved annular flow guide in a high or intermediate turbine. The improved flow guide reduces flow turbulence in an exhaust hood and reduces pressure loss to thereby improve turbine plant efficiency. The shape (vertically symmetric) of a flow guide 5A according to a conventional technology was modified into the shape (vertically asymmetric) of a flow guide 5 such that the length of a downstream flow guide portion 5d is greater than that of a upstream flow guide portion 5u. Numerical analyses were performed to find the optimum flow guide occupation ratio of the conventional technology and the corresponding total pressure loss coefficient. The obtained values were used as reference values. Further, the flow guide occupation ratio of the upstream flow guide portion 5u was set at 0.4 and the flow guide occupation ratio of the downstream flow guide portion 5d was set at 0.
