This web page steamguard.blogspot.com states the following, "A steam turbine is a mechanical device that extracts thermal energy from pressurized steam, and converts it into rotary motion." We saw that the webpage said " Effect of thermal expansion of piping." It also said " Use of elasticity of pipe. Use of bellows type expansion joint. The movement of the inlet steam and exhaust flanges themselves on the turbine under operation due to thermal expansion also need to give consideration. Piping arrangement between steam turbine and back pressure receiver."
