Abstract

The article discusses the results of experimental research of the impact of the law of profiling along the stage height on the characteristics of a turbine with an adjustable nozzle guide vanes. The results of the design study have been confirmed, taking into account meridional streamline bending. It is shown that in the stage profiled according to the law of constancy of the product of the radius of the flow path and the tangent of the blade angle the degree of reactivity in the root sections of the blades increases provided that the degree of reactivity at the middle diameter is the same as in a turbine with a constant blade angle, which leads to an increase in the turbine efficiency in modes with a reduced angle of arrangement of blades of the adjustable nozzle guide vanes and the degree of pressure reduction.
