Highly Recommended for : Power Plant Professionals seeking high growth in career Interview preparations for power plant jobs A comprehensive training manual on Steam Turbines & auxiliaries (Non Reheat Type) covering all aspects for thermal power plants. Its a 300 page Spiral bound manual must for every power plant professional. The manual contains text, images/drawings & illustrations. So far the books written on thermal plants describe mostly the reheat type units. These books are intended for technical personnel working in utility plants but, again, most of them deal predominantly with the theoretical aspects of turbines and their auxiliaries and lack in practical side of the subject. The aim is to give following benefits to the reader: To provide an in-depth knowledge of plant and equipment to the plant professionals associated with industrial boilers and turbines. It is to be noted that most of the industrial thermal units (like captive power plants attached to main technological units) are of non-reheat type. To cover the practical aspects of thermal power stations missing in most of the books available in the market. The book describes in details the constructional features of the plant and equipment, their operation and maintenance and overhauling procedures, performance monitoring as well as troubleshooting. To cover the theoretical aspects of a thermal unit necessary to be known to the professionals for thorough understanding of the systems involved. This knowledge would assist them: In selecting the plant and equipment suitable to their requirement In operating and maintaining the plant with best efficiency, availability and reliability The book is a must for those working professionals who aspire for a fast growth of their professional career. It will also be of immense help to the personnel preparing for boiler proficiency examinations. It contains following topics: Chapter – 1 Thermodynamics of a Steam Turbine Chapter – 2 Steam Turbine Fundamentals Chapter – 3 Constructional features of steam turbines Chapter – 4 The lubricating oil system Chapter – 5 Steam turbine governing system Chapter – 6 Steam turbine protection system Chapter – 7 Turbovisory system Chapter – 8 Turbine gland sealing system Chapter – 9 Turbine system and cycles Chapter – 10 Condensers, deaerators and closed feedwater heater Chapter – 11 Main and auxiliary cooling water systems and cooling towers Chapter – 12 Turbine Plant Pumps Chapter – 13 Condensate and feed water treatment Chapter – 14 Turbine Plant Operation Chapter – 15 Turbine Plant Maintenance Chapter – 16 Turbine performance and optimization

When installed and operated properly, general purpose steam turbines are reliable and tend to be forgotten, i.e., out of sound and out of mind. But, they can be sleeping giants that can result in major headaches if ignored. Three real steam turbine undesirable consequences that immediately come to mind are: Injury and secondary damage due to an overspeed failure. An overspeed failure on a big steam or gas turbine is one of the most frightening of industrial accidents. The high cost of an extensive overhaul due to an undetected component failure. A major steam turbine repair can cost ten or more times that of a garden variety centrifugal pump repair. Costly production loses due an extended outage if the driven pump or compressor train is unspared. The value of lost production can quickly exceed repair costs. A major goal of this book is to provide readers with detailed operating procedure aimed at reducing these risks to minimal levels. Start-ups are complicated by the fact that operators must deal with numerous start-up scenarios, such as: Commissioning a newly installed steam turbine Starting ups after a major steam turbine repair Starting up a proven steam turbine after an outage Overspeed trip testing It is not enough to simply have a set of procedures in the control room for reference. To be effective, operating procedures must be clearly written down, taught, and practiced—until they become habit.

Excerpt from Steam Turbines: A Book of Instruction for the Adjustment and Operation of the Principal Types of This Class of Prime Movers This issue of the Power Handbook attempts to give a compact manual for the engineer who feels the need of acquainting himself with steam turbines. To accomplish this within the limits of space allowed, it has been necessary to confine the work to the description of a few standard types, prepared with the assistance of the builders. Following this the practical experience of successful engineers, gathered from the columns of Power, is given. It is hoped that the book will prove of value to all engineers handling turbines, whether of the described types or not.

Advances in Steam Turbines for Modern Power Plants provides an authoritative review of steam turbine design optimization, analysis and measurement, the development of steam turbine blades, and other critical components, including turbine retrofitting and steam turbines for renewable power plants. As a very large proportion of the world’s electricity is currently generated in systems driven by steam turbines, (and will most likely remain the case in the future) with steam turbines operating in fossil-fuel, cogeneration, combined cycle, integrated gasification combined cycle, geothermal, solar thermal, and nuclear plants across the world, this book provides a comprehensive assessment of the research and work that has been completed over the past decades. Presents an in-depth review on steam turbine design optimization, analysis, and measurement Written by a range of experts in the area Provides an overview of turbine retrofitting and advanced applications in power generation

Excerpt from The Design and Construction of Steam Turbines: A Manual for the Engineer Mr. Alexander Richardson procured for the author complete data of important turbine tests, which have proved invaluable. TO Mr. W. Chilton and Mr. J. M. Newton, B. Se., Of the Brush Electrical Engineering Company, a special meed Of thanks is due for the results Of some Of their experiments on blading. The general scheme of this volume was decided on after much consideration, and the author finally adopted the plan of giving, without prior proof, important rules and formulas in a shape convenient for immediate practical application. The demonstrations are proceeded with later, in the belief that they will be the more readily followed by the average reader, when he has previously been impressed with the utility of the result.
