Reverse engineering methodology as a way of steam turbine blades designing for Loviisa Nuclear Power

This article concerns a reverse engineering-based design process of last stage blade (LSB) for other original equipment manufacturer (oOEM). For Loviisa Power Plant (Finland) GE designed and delivered a set of oOEM LSBs to be fit into existing low pressure (LP) turbine module steam path. Although co...
