Claims
- 1. A steam turbine comprising:a high-pressure drum configuration turbine section having a high-pressure steam inlet and a high-pressure steam outlet; a medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section having a medium-pressure steam inlet and a medium-pressure steam outlet; and an intermediate superheater; said medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section fluidically connected to said high-pressure drum configuration turbine section from said high-pressure steam outlet to said medium-pressure steam inlet through said intermediate superheater.
- 2. The steam turbine according to claim 1, wherein said high-pressure chamber configuration turbine section is a double-flow configuration.
- 3. The steam turbine according to claim 1, including a single outer casing, said high-pressure chamber configuration turbine section and said medium-pressure drum configuration turbine section being disposed within said single outer casing.
- 4. The steam turbine according to claim 3, including a thrust-compensating piston for compensating an axial thrust of said medium-pressure drum configuration turbine section, said high-pressure chamber configuration turbine section being disposed axially between said medium-pressure drum configuration turbine section and said thrust-compensating piston.
- 5. The steam turbine according to claim 1, wherein said high-pressure chamber configuration turbine section has a high-pressure outer casing and said medium-pressure drum configuration turbine section has a medium-pressure outer casing located at an axial distance from said high-pressure outer casing.
- 6. The steam turbine according to claim 5, wherein said high-pressure outer casing is pot-shaped.
- 7. A steam turbine comprising:a high-pressure drum double-flow configuration turbine section; and a medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section fluidically connected to said high-pressure drum double-flow configuration turbine section.
- 8. The steam turbine according to claim 7, including a single outer casing, said high-pressure drum double-flow configuration turbine section and said medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section being disposed within said single outer casing.
- 9. The steam turbine according to claim 8, wherein said medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section is a double-flow configuration.
- 10. The steam turbine according to claim 8, including a thrust-compensating piston for compensating an axial thrust of said medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section, said high-pressure drum double-flow configuration turbine section being disposed axially between said medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section and said thrust-compensating piston.
- 11. The steam turbine according to claim 7, wherein said high-pressure drum double-flow configuration turbine section has a high-pressure outer casing and said medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section has a medium-pressure outer casing located at an axial distance from said high-pressure outer casing.
- 12. The steam turbine according to claim 11, wherein said high-pressure outer casing is pot-shaped.
- 13. The steam turbine according to claim 11, wherein said medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section is a double-flow configuration.
- 14. The steam turbine according to claim 7, wherein said medium-pressure chamber configuration turbine section is a double-flow configuration.
