85. The process of maintaining the speed of the turbine constant for various load conditions, is known as
bleeding
reheating
governing
none of these
✅ The correct answer is option C.
86. The ratio of the energy supplied to the blades per kg of steam to the total energy supplied per stage per kg of steam is called mechanical efficiency.
Yes
No
✅ The correct answer is option B.
87. The efficiency of an impulse turbine is maximum when (where Vb = Blade speed, V = Absolute velocity of steam entering the blade, and α = Nozzle angle)
Vb = 0.5 V cos α
Vb = V cos α
Vb = 0.5 V2 cos α
Vb = V2 cosα
