How fixed blade is 1?

DOR = enthalpy drop in rotor/(total energy drop in rotor).
Total energy = enthalpy drop in rotor + kinetic energy drop in rotor
Enthalpy drop in rotor = 2/3 enthalpy drop in stator ( nozzle or fixed blades) ===>>equ i
Kinetic energy drop in rotor is equal to kinetic energy gain in stator which is equal to enthalpy drop in stator.

So,

The kinetic energy drop = enthalpy drop in stator ====>> equ ii.
So we can solve and get an answer = .4.

Degree of reaction = isentropic enthalpy drop in moving blade/(isentropic enthalpy drop in fixed blade+isentropic enthalpy drop in moving blade).
= (2/3)/[1+(2/3)].
= (2/3)/(5/3),
= 2/5,
= 0.4 ans.

@Kanji and @Bhavanishankar are correct.

The degree reaction is,
Enthalpy dropped in moving blades = 2,
Total enthalpy dropped in turbine = 3 (total enthalpy dropped 2+3=5//
Then 2/5. =0.4.
