Abstract
The rotating shaft is connected to the generator; the high-pressure steam s is introduced to the expansion chamber b through the guide passage; when the energy of the high-pressure steam s during expansion process revolves the revolving scroll, the generator regenerates electric power. The connecting housing is provided with the inlet opening and the outlet opening; the ventilation blades are fitted to the rotating shaft. When the ventilation blades rotate, the outside air is introduced (inside of the housing) from and through the inlet opening; the air passes by the air opening and the backside of the revolving scroll, and is discharged through the outlet opening. Thus, by the approach that the air passage is formed inside of the connecting housing and the scroll housing, the high-pressure steam s is prevented from being directed toward the backside of the revolving scroll.
