Summary: The monograph deals with comprehensive research in the field of electrization of wet steam flow in a turbine. An analysis is presented, the experience of studies conducted on laboratory stands and full-scale facilities (CHP and TPP) in Ukraine, the USA is summarized, post-factorial phenomena of electrization and their influence on the operational characteristics of the turbine are considered, and specific recommendations are proposed to improve its efficiency and reliability. The most widely presented are studies on establishing the main electrophysical factors of influence the surface strength of the blade, such as electric fields, charge density, and their polarity. Water chemistry regimes (WCM) are also considered in the context of their influence on the flow charge formation process, reliability, and efficiency indicators of the turbine.

Reading audience: The monograph may be useful to energy specialists working in the field of research, development, and operation of steam turbines.
