DoR = Enthalpy drop in moving/enthalpy drop in moving+enthalpy drop in fixed blade.

How its 0.4?

Lakshmi Kant said:   1 decade ago
Degree of reaction or reaction ratio (R) is defined as the ratio of static pressure drop in the rotor to the static pressure drop in the stage or as the ratio of static enthalpy drop in the rotor to the static enthalpy drop in the stage.

i.e. R = 0.4 for this problem.

Yes, degree of reaction=isentropic entropy drop in moving blade of turbine/enthalpy drop in fixed blade turbine.

Degree of reaction = isentropic enthalpy drop in moving blade of turbine/isentropic enthalpy drop in fixed blad of turbine.
