The steam turbine is an excellent prime mover to convert the heat energy of steam to mechanical energy. In power generation mostly steam turbines are used because of their greater thermal efficiency and higher power-to-weight ratio. Because the turbine generates rotary motion, it is particularly suited to be used to drive an electrical generator – about 80% of all electricity generation in the world is by use of steam turbines. In addition, the realization of critical turbine components needs improved design and materials, which offer all possibilities for a cost-effective and flexible service. High thermal stress gradients were found at the region of the casing where fatigue cracks were detected during engine operation. In this work, the thermal-mechanical analysis of steam turbine casing will be established by the finite element method. In this work, the temperature and stress distributions for the turbine's inner casing were calculated by finite element analysis. The three-dimensional model of the Steam Turbine Casing was created using the SOLIDWORKS software. Boundary conditions were given on the finite element model through ANSYS.
