Question:

A simple impulse turbine has one ring of moving blades running at \(150 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). The absolute velocity of steam at exit from the stage is \(80 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) at an angle of \(75^{\circ}\) from the tangential direction. Blade speed coefficient is 0.85 and the rate of steam flowing through the stage is \(3 \mathrm{~kg} / \mathrm{s}\). If the blades are equiangular, determine

(a) blade angles,

(b) nozzle angle,

(c) absolute velocity of steam issuing from the nozzle, and

(d) axial thrust.
