A steam turbine system 1 includes a steam turbine 10 including a plurality of rotor blades 16; a first mixed steam supply pipe 21 that supplies the steam, which is supplied from a steam supply source 40 capable of supplying the steam with fluctuating pressure, to an upstream stage Sa within the casing 11; a second mixed steam supply pipe 22 that supplies the steam to the second stepped part Sb; an adjusting unit 25 that adjusts a flow rate of the steam supplied to the first stepped part Sa and the second stepped part Sb; and a control unit 30 that controls the adjusting unit 25 on the basis of a differential pressure between a pressure P0 of the steam supplied from the steam supply source 40 and a pressure in the first stepped part Sa.

An impulse turbine of a turbine device includes a cylindrical body having an axial hole, and a blade unit arranged to surround the periphery of the body. The blade unit includes a cylindrical base arranged to surround the periphery of the body, and a plurality of unit blades radially arranged in a line along the periphery of the base. Each of the unit blades includes an outlet that discharges fluid, injected onto the unit blade, in a direction different from the fluid spray direction, but does not discharge the fluid toward the other unit blades.

An axial turbine (100) with two supply levels for the expansion phase of a working fluid in a thermodynamic vapor cycle or in an organic Rankine cycle comprising a shaft (2), a plurality of rotor blade arrays (R1-Rn) and corresponding support disks (21, 22), a plurality of stator blade arrays (S1-Sn), further comprising a first inlet opening (5) and a second inlet opening (7′). The second volute (4) is positioned inside the first volute (3), the working fluid of the second supply level reaching upstream of a stator blade (S2,Sn) that is are immediately upstream of one of the rotor blade arrays that extends radially into both of the first and second supply levels.

An air inlet device for an air inlet of an aircraft. The air inlet device has air guide arrangements. An air guide arrangement has an inlet plate, an outlet plate, and pivot plates arranged therebetween. The outlet plate and the pivot plates can be rotated about a central axis of the air inlet device by adjustment rings, so that the air guide arrangement is transitioned from a linear state to a curved state, and vice versa. The air inlet device allows for selective switching between a state with low radar signature and a state with high performance of an engine.
