Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Steam Turbine Engines, Their Construction, Care and Operation Full Instructions Regarding Correct Methods of Operating Steam Turbines, Adjusting Clearances, Etc The rapid increase within recent years, in the number of installations of steam turbines for power purposes, renders it absolutely necessary that the engineer who is in charge of, or is confronted with a possibility of being placed in charge of a steam turbine plant, should make himself thoroughly acquainted with the principles controlling the action of steam turbines; also the details connected with their care, and successful operation. This knowledge he can obtain by a close study of the following pages, in which are set forth in plain, simple language the underlying principles of the turbine, and its advantages as a prime mover. The book also contains descriptions in detail of the several different types of steam turbines that have, on account of their merits come to be standard in this country. Each type is clearly illustrated and explained. There is also a plain and forcible discussion of methods used in the disposal of the exhaust steam of steam turbines, much of which will also apply to reciprocating engines, and this in itself will prove to be of great benefit to the student engineer, for the reason that in many steam plants conditions exist which call for a complete working knowledge of both the Turbine, and the Reciprocating types of prime movers, due to the fact that both types of engines are often being operated by the same firm or corporation. In addition to the foregoing matter, there is also a complete list of questions and answers pertaining to the principles of steam turbines, and their operation and management, all of which will be found to be of inestimable value to the student seeking knowledge along this line.
