The steam works only by impact, not by reaction, thus avoid-ing the balancing pistons of Parsons. In the stationary blades, which reach up to the shaft in orderto restrict the dangerous clearance to a minimum, the steamhas a chance to expand and reach a certain velocity and a cer-tain direction in which it impinges the next running-wheel. The absolute velocities of the steam in this turbine are higherthan in the Parsons turbine, but they are lower than in the Curtisand much lower than in the De Laval. In this turbine the steamis expanded in every stationary blade down to a certain pressureand ac
