dc.description.abstract	Recently, the importance of mechanical drive steam turbine efficiency has been much highlighted in addition to its reliability with drastic increase in fuel cost. In this paper the typical losses in steam turbines are reviewed first, and then the technology to improve turbine performance by decreasing (1) exhaust loss and (2) highly distributed stage losses is discussed. Also, possible efficiency gains are described briefly. Some examples of modification of existing turbines for energy conservation are given and, finally, shop performance tests are introduced.	en
