44.
In a reaction turbine
the steam is allowed to expand in the nozzle, where it gives a high velocity before it enters the moving blades
the expansion of steam takes place partly in the fixed blades and partly in the moving blades
the steam is expanded from a high pressure to a condenser pressure in one or more nozzles
the pressure and temperature of steam remains constant
