Abstract: Abstract. To mitigate the erosion issue in steam turbines, it is crucial to suppress the formation of coarse droplets spreading from the trailing edge upstream as well as from the shroud wall. The droplet size will be ...

Abstract: Erosion of steam turbine blades due to coarse droplet impingement is a serious problem. The physical relationship is still elusive between the dynamics of wavy liquid film on a wall and the droplet dispersion from the ...
