Abstract: The steam turbine is the most ideal of all heat engines and prime movers, and it is widely employed in power plants and other sectors where power is required for process. The study's purpose was to develop a power-generating single-stage reaction steam turbine. Thermal energy was used to power the turbine. The research focuses on turbine component design. The micro turbine concept's design and construction were rigorously limited. Stress loss, performance, and angle characteristics were all considered in the blade design. The overall mean temperature and heat transport, as well as other concepts, were used to construct the casing volume. When calculating the amount of tolerance, the heat distribution on the rotor and stator was taken into account. The turbine setup had been constructed according to plan. There were 14 blades made of aluminum. There had been a couple of complications. Leakage was the most important problem of them. Under these conditions, the designed power and heat rate were never achieved. This research looked into the elements and aspects that reduce the turbine's efficiency.
