Development of NiCrSiBC Weld Hardfacing Approach for P91 Steels Used in Steam Turbine Components

Steam Turbine Components and Systems

Steam turbines consist essentially of a casing to which stationary blades are fixed on the inside and a rotor carrying moving blades on the periphery. The rotor is fitted inside the casing with the rows of moving blades penetrating between the rows of fixed blades. Thus steam flowing through the turbine passes alternately through fixed and moving blades with the fixed blades directing the steam...

A Decision Tree Approach for Steam Turbine-Generator Fault Diagnosis

Redundancy and inconsistency are universal features of the turbine vibration fault diagnosis. If we can provide a solution to the problem, it should be very meaningful that the fault diagnosis data included redundant and inconsistent information could be used to decision-making rules of fault diagnosis. A novel data mining approach for fault diagnosis of turbine generator unit is proposed based...

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

Steam Turbine Configuration

Most electric power is produced by steam turbines. This is because the steam cycle is well suited to the conversion of heat to work and steam turbines can be built in a wide range of capacities up to about 1500 MW. Steam turbines are basically very simple having fixed blades to accelerate the steam and moving blades to absorb the resulting kinetic energy. The moving blades are mounted on a rota...
