Hi Maryak, thanks for that explanation. I wonder if optimising the flow for that turbine might be one factor in the choice of crank angles for the Titanic, while for more typical engine arrangements, exhaust pulsations would not be so important so other factors such as balance can be given more importance.MJM460
Thanks Maryak, I think that you are right about those lp cylinder pressures with and without the turbine. The total pressure range tends to distribute itself over the number of stages, and the turbine is effectively an extra stage when it is on line. But it depends on valve events and steam chest volumes. Do you have any more information about that aspect of the triple expansion engine?MJM460
