Steam Turbine Design
 
    This part of the project is coming along nicely now. I have just about completed (at the time of this writing) a spreadsheet the does the basic Turbine thermodynamic analysis. Hopefully this will be completed this week, and as Fall quater starts in 10 days from now, I can start working on the mechanical design. The Spreadsheet was done with Microsoft Excel using code borrowed from http://www.cheresources.com/iapwsif97.shtml that generates the properties of steam and water using visual basic functions that can be called by Excel. I have made a few modifications and if you are interested, you can get my latest code here, or you can get the spreadsheet here.
