In the frame of the measurement feasibility study of the liquid phase size distribution structure in steam turbines at intermediate and high pressures, on CTU the interaction of optical probes with the wet steam flow field is investigated. In order to validate and refine the existing knowledge, a new series of CFD simulations were performed, considering turbine flow geometry, water steam characteristics according to IAPWS97 formulation, and improved boundary conditions and quality of the computing mesh. This paper briefly presents the newly obtained results
