Steam Turbines Blades

The blades used in Kessels Steam Turbines are designed with a high factor of safety and possess special aerodynamic profiles that provide for maximum heat drop across the stages, resulting in higher generated power.

With over 300 different combinations incorporating different metallurgies such as chromium stainless steel alloy and titanium to suit different applications, Kessels is one of the few Steam Turbine manufacturers in the World to actively integrate and use long blades with tapered and twisted profiles for the last few stages, achieving optimal operating efficiency. Kessels blades are specially treated to prevent edge erosion, ensuring a long operating life, and tested and examined by the Zyglo method for crack detection before use
