ABSTRACT:
A steam turbine-driven generator for generating electric power is comprised of an electric generator having a vertical shaft journalled for rotation between bearings contained in a generator housing. An axial flow impulse turbine wheel with peripheral vanes is secured to an unsupported upper end of the shaft protruding from the top of the generator housing. The turbine wheel is enclosed within a turbine housing secured to the top of the generator housing. The turbine housing includes an inlet and an outlet for accommodating a through flow of steam, with internally arranged nozzles for directing the steam flow against the vanes of the turbine wheel.
