SST - Back Pressure Turbines

Back Pressure Turbines operates with exhaust pressure equal to (or) in excess of atmospheric pressure. The steam in the back pressure turbine is expanded to the pre-determined pressure and sent to the process requirement. Usually this type of turbines are used in cogen applications. For same power rating the cost of turbine is less compared to Condensing Turbine due to its small size. The exhaust steam is connected to the process header.
