Abstract:
A steam turbine that passes more turbine driving steam by off-setting the turbine moving blade throat•pitch ratio before operation and, when a blade untwist is generated during operation, causing more turbine driving steam to flow by maintaining an appropriate value, and, at the same time causing the turbine moving blade throat•pitch ratio to swell by giving the blade untwisting angle to the blade cross-sections in regions where the aerodynamic loss is small. The steam turbine is one in which the throat•pitch ratio (S/T) distribution of a turbine moving blade is offset by forming a curve providing at least one minimal value and maximal value by giving blade twist angle to the blade cross-sections in the blade height direction from blade root to blade tip and, at the same time, the distribution of throat•pitch ratio (S/T) taking into consideration blade untwist generated during operation.
