The complex 3D flow in a steam turbine exhaust hood model with different inlet swirl and inlet total pressure ra- dial distributions has been simulated by employing CFX-5 and analyzed in this paper.It’s found that the inlet tangential flow angle at hub has a negative effect on the exhaust hood performance,while a negative gradient of inlet total pressure radial distribution has a positive impact on the hood performances.It’s also numerically con- firmed that a proper distribution of total pressure at hood inlet can successfully eliminate the negative effects caused by the inappropriate inlet swirl distribution and improve the hood aerodynamic performance.
