Answer ( Option C)

The steam is expanded in nozzles only and there is a pressure drop and heat drop.

Solution

In an impulse turbine, the steam is expanded in nozzle only and there is a pressure drop and heat drop. The impulse turbine is the simplest type of turbine. It consists of a row of nozzles followed by a row of blades. The gas is expanded in the nozzle, converting the high thermal energy into kinetic energy.
