Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the second volume of his two-book set on turbine steam paths, William P. Sanders, P.Eng., turns his expert analysis to repair and refurbishment options currently accessible that will keep turbines operating with high levels of availability and improved efficiency. Also provided are details on estimating financial penalties associated with leakage from damaged turbines, which can reduce the cost of power. A full analysis of quality and inspection of manufactured elements to replace damaged components is included as well. Volume 2 incorporates photographs, tables, equations, and examples to provide an excellent simplification of this complicated topic. Taken together with Volume 1, this set is sure to be an invaluable resource readers turn to many times during their careers!

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.

Book excerpt: Bethlehem Steel Corporation (BSC), the second largest producer of steel in the United States, needed to improve the performance of a steam turbine generator at its Burns Harbour facility in Indiana. As part of the US Department of Energy's Steam Challenge Programme, BSC significantly increased the efficiency and capacity of its steam turbine generator system by: rebuilding the turbine to incorporate the latest steam path technology; using a portion of the warm condenser cooling water exhaust stream (rather than cool lake water) for boiler feedwater makeup; admitting low pressure steam directly into the turbine.
