[0002] Steam turbines are the core power equipment in thermal power, nuclear power, and other power plants. They are mainly composed of physical structures such as stators, rotors, blades, and bearings. They receive high-temperature and high-pressure steam generated by boilers, and use the steam to drive the rotor to rotate by impacting the blades, converting the steam thermal energy into mechanical energy, which in turn drives the generator to generate electricity. This equipment is a key link in energy conversion and has the characteristics of stable operation and high efficiency, supporting the continuous power supply of the power system.

[0003] Steam turbine thermal efficiency is a core indicator for measuring how well a steam turbine converts steam thermal energy into mechanical energy. It refers to the ratio of the effective output mechanical energy to the total input steam thermal energy.
