In steam turbines the reheat factor_____________?
Correct answer: A. increases with the increase in number of stages
- A. increases with the increase in number of stages
- B. decreases with the increase in number of stages
- C. remains same irrespective of number of stages
- D. none of the above
Explanation
The reheat factor is the ratio of the sum of stagewise actual enthalpy drops to the overall isentropic enthalpy drop. More stages produce more cumulative stage losses, so the factor generally increases.
