270 H. P. Turbine and rotary pump with the upper half of the gear case and field frame removed for purposes of inspec- The De Laval Turbine 65 FIG. 271 tion. The slender shaft is seen projecting from the center of the turbine case, and upon this shaft are shown the 66 Steam Engineering small pinions meshing into the large spiral gears upon the two pump shafts. Eef erring to Fig. 270, A is the turbine shaft, B is the turbine wheel, and C is the pinion. As the turbine wheel is by far the most imp...ortant element, it will be taken up first. It is made of forged nickel steel, and it is claimed by the builders, the De Laval Steam Turbine Co. , of Tren- ton, New Jersey, that it will withstand more than double the normal speed before showing any signs of distress. A clear idea of the construction of the wheel and buckets may be had by reference to Fig. 268. The number of buckets varies according to the capacity of the machine. There are about 350 buckets on a 300 H. P. Wheel. The buckets are drop forged, and made with a bulb shank fitted in slots milled in the rim of the wheel.
