What is wheel chamber in steam turbine?is it impulse blades are called wheel chamber in the steam turbine?
Answer Posted / powerplant.calculations
Wheel chamber is a chamber provided on HP side of after impulse wheel.
The most of the (>50% of pressure at rated load) drops at wheel chamber,..AT lower load wheel chamber pressure drops.
As a thumb rule wheel chamber pressure is calculated as
Turbine wheel chamber pressure (kg/cm2) = (Turbine inlet pressure (kg/cm2) X Turbine operating load (MW) X 0.6)/Turbine rated capacity (MW).

DCS marshaling Cabinet Power supply can be replace during plant running time? Answer Yes it is possible. I am talking about the controller and cards power supply modules. They are always redundant and connected through diode so that if one power supply fails the other can take the charge immediately.so it is possible to replace one of them in running plant if the other one is healthy. MY question is how switching done.
