What is it about?
The paper deals with flow of wet water steam in diffuser of turbine engine 1090 MW on saturated water steam. Experimental measurements were done while the turbine was in operation for a wide range of outputs. Defining the outlet velocity from the last stage and with knowledge of static pressures on the diffuser outlet, it is possible to define the contribution of the diffuser to the whole low pressure part efficiency.

Why is it important?
There is a lack of experimental research done in steam turbine in power plants. This paper should partly correct this problem and show some basic results deals with steam turbine diffuser behaviour.
Perspectives
This paper provides very perspective results because of measurement is done in real steam turbine.
