PROBLEM 5The first stage of an impulse turbine is compounded for velocity and has two rows of moving blades and one ring of fixed blades. The nozzle angle is 15o and the leaving angle of blades are respectively, first moving 30o, fixed 20o; second moving 30o. The velocity of steam leaving the nozzle is 540 m/s. The friction loss in each blade row is 10% of the relative velocity. Steam leaves the second row of moving blades axially. Find : 1. Blade velocity 2. Blade efficiency
