  2. Advanced steam technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_steam_technology

    According to the company, the steam engine named Quadrum generates 27% efficiency and runs with 180 °C steam at 8 bar pressure, while a corresponding steam turbine produces just 15% efficiency, requires steam temperature of 240 °C and pressure of 40 bar. The high efficiency comes from a patented crank mechanism, that gives a smooth, pulseless ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compounding_of_steam_turbines

    Compounding of steam turbines. Compounding of steam turbines is a method of extracting steam energy in multiple stages rather than in a single stage in a steam turbine. A compounded steam turbine has multiple stages with more than one set of nozzles and rotors. These are arranged in series, either keyed to the common shaft or fixed to the casing.

  5. Cutoff (steam engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutoff_(steam_engine)

    Cutoff is one of the four valve events. Early cutoff is used to increase the efficiency of the engine by allowing the steam to expand for the rest of the power stroke, yielding more of its energy and conserving steam. This is known as expansive working. Late cutoff is used to provide maximum torque to the shaft at the expense of efficiency and ...

  8. Steam locomotive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_locomotive

    The cut-off point determines the moment when the valve blocks a steam port, "cutting off" admission steam and thus determining the proportion of the stroke during which steam is admitted into the cylinder; for example a 50% cut-off admits steam for half the stroke of the piston. The remainder of the stroke is driven by the expansive force of ...
