Steam Turbine Plant (SMT-SPP-01)
This system is Ideal for students to gain insight into the first and second laws of thermodynamics. It introduces students to industry-standard methods of analyzing steam plant performance.
This System Contains A bench top steam turbine with electric fired boiler, throttle valve, impulse turbine, and boiler feed pump. Instrumentation to record all relevant temperatures, pressures, cooling water and gas flows, turbine speed and turbine brake load. Safety to include high pressure cut out switches and relief valves on boiler, steam solenoid valve and electrical overload cut outs and earth leakage circuit breaker. This system is Self contained in a mobile frame that includes all instruments needed for experiments. This Allows students to copy the Marcet Boiler Experiment to prove the pressure-temperature relationship for saturated steam. The measurements are read off digital displays and can simultaneously be transmitted directly to a PC via USB and analyzed there using then ESOLS
Real Time DAQ software.
