Abstract

See full text

A turbine inlet includes an annular housing and a main inlet port, a steam outlet, and a flow diversion port in the annular housing. A center axis of flow from the flow diversion port avoids intersecting a center axis of the steam outlet. A turbine system includes a turbine inlet, a fluid supply, and a flow diversion supply conduit. The turbine inlet has an annular housing including a main inlet port therein, a steam outlet therein, and a flow diversion port therein. The flow diversion supply conduit couples the fluid supply to the flow diversion port. A method of retrofitting a turbine inlet in a turbine system comprises opening a flow diversion port through an annular housing of a turbine inlet, connecting a flow diversion supply conduit to the flow diversion port, and connecting the flow diversion supply conduit to the fluid supply.
