Popis: In this paper is presented energy (isentropic) analysis of high power, three-cylinder steam turbine with steam re-heating. A comparison of real (polytropic) and ideal (isentropic) steam expansion processes at nominal load show that observed turbine develops real power of 655.35 MW, while in ideal situation it can develop 716.18 MW. The highest energy loss and the lowest energy efficiency occur in the high pressure turbine cylinder (25.67 MW and 89.14%), while intermediate pressure cylinder has the highest energy efficiency and the lowest energy loss. The energy efficiency of the whole observed turbine is 91.51%, what is in the expected range for such high power steam turbines at nominal load. Further optimization of this steam turbine will be primarily based on the high pressure cylinder.
