Synopsis

This is part of a 12-volume set. Volume C covers turbines, generators and associated plant, including: turbine plant systems; condensors, pumps and cooling water systems; and the generator. The introduction of new 500 MW and 660 MW turbine-generator plant in nuclear, coal- and oil-fired power stations has been partly responsible for the increase in generating capacity of the CEGB over the last 30 years. This volume provides a detailed account of experience gained in the development, design, manufacture, operation and testing of large turbine-generators in the last 20 years. With the advance in analytical and computational techniques, the application of this experience to future design and operation of large turbine-generator plant should be of value to engineers in the industry.
