Steam and Gas Turbines Anatomy, Characteristics and Functioning topics include: Closed cycle, nozzle design, shock wave, position angles, types of steam, turbine flow passage design, energy distribution, cascade principle, design calculations for impulse and multistaged turbine flow passages, blade, bending and disk stresses, shrouding and lacing wires and other metallurgical considerations.

Gas turbines and steam turbines have different main parts and working principles:
Gas turbines: Use hot, compressed gas or a mixture of gases as a working fluid. They consist of a compressor, combustion chamber, and power turbine. The compressor sucks in air from outside, compresses it, and uses it for combustion air in the combustion chamber. The compressor and turbine are mounted on a common shaft between the combustion chamber and the turbine. Gas turbines require a starting motor because they lack self-starting capabilities.
Steam turbines: Use the expansion of high-pressure steam to produce rotational motion. The main parts of a steam turbine are the low pressure turbine, intermediate pressure turbine, rotor, and high pressure turbine. Other structural elements include the stator, rotor, blading, bearings, and steam seals. The blading is usually made of stainless steel. 

Here's how steam turbines work:
A heat source heats water to extremely high temperatures until it is converted into steam.
The steam flows past a turbine's spinning blades.
The steam expands and cools.
The rotor carries the blading to convert the thermal energy of the steam into the rotary motion of the shaft. 

Steam turbines are scalable and can be designed to suit any application. They separate the energy source and electrical power generation, making them compatible with various sources of fuels.
