Steam Turbines Modernization
About steam turbine modernization or retrofitting, your industry has the right company in Wortice. With professionals with over 40 years of experience in the market, in a personalized way, Wortice is a reference and shows below how important the process of modernization of steam turbines is for the best functioning of the entire industrial park.
After all, purchase new steam turbines is not always possible. Therefore, the modernization of Wortice steam turbines comes to renew equipment that is already at the end of its lifespan or that is technologically outdated.
How steam turbines work
Steam turbines are robust equipment that are present in several machinery, such as electric power generators, mills, chippers, shredders, turbo-pumps, exhaust fans, centrifuges, blowers, propellers, compressors, fans, among others.
They are responsible for transforming the energy present in the steam into electrical energy that will be used to power the equipment described above.
Then, steam turbines work with speed, pressure and temperature in three main steps:
- Transforms steam energy into motion (kinetic) energy
- Kinetic energy is transformed into work (mechanical) energy
- Mechanical energy is transformed into electrical energy.
Energy path in steam turbines
The modernization of steam turbines is a very important process, since they are made up of many parts that can wear out very quickly over time, impairing efficiency and the generation of electricity through steam.
The energy path in steam turbines can also be summarized in three steps:
- Steam enters the turbine at a certain pressure and temperature.
- It is sent to the expander plate which directs it to the vanes
- The vanes, connected to a rotor or shaft, are rotated by the steam, generating the energy.
To know more details about steam turbines, Wortice has prepared special materials that show you why the company is a reference in the segment and can offer you the best solution in the modernization of steam turbines.

What is steam turbine modernization
The entire industrial park undergoes constant maintenance processes that ensure efficiency, durability and safety for the machinery and for the operation. But it doesn't always manage to improve performance, as some of them are technologically outdated or with limited lifespan. That's where modernization comes in.
When we refer to electric power generators, mills, chippers, shredders, turbo-pumps, exhaust fans, centrifuges, blowers, propellers, compressors, fans, among other important equipment that have steam turbines, the modernization of steam turbines becomes a profitable option from 30 to 40 years of manufacture.
Definition
The modernization of steam turbines, or retrofit , is the process in which the repowering or replacement of parts is made possible to ensure:
- Safety
- Reliability
- Operational availability
- Cost reduction.
In addition to it, the modernization of steam turbines makes the equipment operate according to current requires and can be programmed to meet even greater demands in the coming years with the modernization of Wortice steam turbines
