low-speed turbine

Each turbine set consisted of one high-speed turbine and a low-speed turbine.

The loan will be used to finance production of low-speed turbines and generators with a capacity of 1000 to 1700 megawatts, state nuclear holding Atomenergoprom, which controls Atomenergomash, said in a statement.

The primary shaft bears the compressor and the high speed turbine (often referred to as the Gas Generator), while a second shaft bears the low-speed turbine (a power turbine or free-wheeling turbine on helicopters, especially, because the gas generator turbine spins separately from the power turbine).
