Question: 3 . 1 Indicate whether the following statement is TRUE or FALSE by writing only 'True' or 'False' next to the question number ( 3

3.1 Indicate whether the following statement is TRUE or FALSE by writing only 'True' or 'False' next to the question number (3.1) in the ANSWER BOOK.
The term, impulse, in impulse steam turbines describes the principle of operation.
3.2 The nozzle velocity and angle in a two-stage velocity-compounded impulse turbine are 500ms and 20. In the first stage of moving blades, relative angles are equal. In the second stage, the absolute inlet angle is 20, the relative angles are equal. The mean blade speed is 100ms while the coefficient of velocity across the turbine is 90%. The steam flow rate through the turbine can be assumed to be a unit kilogram.
From the given information, determine the following:
3.2.1 Use a scale of 30mm=100ms to construct the turbine's velocity diagrams. On these diagrams, indicate all the lengths in millimetres and all the angles in degrees.
3.2.2 Use the diagrams constructed in QUESTION 3.2 to determine the diagram efficiency and the power developed.
