Download or read book Evaluating and Improving Steam Turbine Performance written by K. C. Cotton and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an excellent example of the practical application of thermodynamics & fluid flow fundamentals to the solution of performance problems in power plants. Current design practices & methods for testing steam turbines & interpreting the test results are presented. This book concentrates on measuring turbine & cycle-component performance & on calculating the effects that measured deviations from design values (e.g., increased steam-path clearances, blade deposits, or solid particle erosion) have on turbine efficiency. In an impressive array of examples, measured performance & current design data are compared to quantify performance losses. Then, using these measurements & deductive reasoning, the book pinpoints problem areas that help identify the nature of the deficiency & proposes remedial action. This book develops a better appreciation for optimum turbine design which enables the evaluation of proposed efficiency improvements. It also quantifies the effect of power plant operation (abnormal conditions) on turbine efficiency, throttle flow & stage pressures. The revised edition includes chapters on co-generation & combind cycles. This book was written for engineers responsible for the efficient operation of electric utilities, power plants & cogeneration plants. Review questions have been provided so that this material may be used as a textbook or reference book in colleges & universities. To order: Cotton Fact Inc., 346 Kingsley Rd., Burnt Hills, NY 12027.
