This diploma thesis deals with the design of a condensing steam turbine for a combined cycle gas turbine unit with steam extraction for a district heating system, low-pressure regenerative feedwater heating, additional low-pressure steam admission and a water-cooled condenser. The design was carried out for admission steam parameters of 543 °C, 93 bar(a) and a mass flow rate of 253 t/h. Additional low-pressure steam with parameters of 210 °C, 9 bar(a) and a mass flow rate of 46 t/h is also admitted into the turbine flow path. The thesis includes the development of a heat balance diagram of the steam cycle for condensing, summer and winter operating modes. The governing stage was designed as a nozzle-controlled impulse governing stage and the turbine stage section was designed as reaction blading divided into seven turbine cones. The resulting flow path consists of 32 reaction stages and 1 action stage. The design also included an assessment of selected dimensionless stage characteristics, a check of tensile and bending stresses in the blades, the design of the balancing piston and the determination of the residual axial thrust acting on the rotor. Furthermore, the turbine operating characteristic was determined as the relationship between the total steam mass flow rate entering the turbine and the terminal power output. The final design satisfies the specified requirements for the considered operating modes and shows the main limitations associated with extraction operation for the district heating system, loading of the last turbine stages and the requirement for axial thrust balancing.
