Steam Plant Operation, 10th Edition
Author: Everett B. WoodruffPublisher: McGraw Hill Professional
ISBN: 1259641341
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 750
Book Description
The definitive reference on the role of steam in the production and operation of power plants for electric generation and industrial process applications For more than 80 years, Steam Plant Operation has been an unmatched source of information on steam power plants, including design, operation, and maintenance. The Tenth Edition emphasizes the importance of devising a comprehensive energy plan utilizing all economical sources of energy, including fossil fuels, nuclear power, and renewable energy sources. This trusted classic discusses the important role that steam plays in our power production and identifies the associated risks and potential problems of other energy sources. You will find concise explanations of key concepts, from fundamentals through design and operation. For energy students, Steam Plant Operation provides a solid introduction to steam power plant technology. This practical guide includes common power plant calculations such as plant heat rate, boiler efficiency, pump performance, combustion processes, and explains the systems necessary to control plant emissions. Numerous illustrations and clear presentation of the material will prove invaluable for those preparing for an operator’s license exam. Examples throughout show real-world application of the topics discussed. COVERAGE INCLUDES: • Steam and Its Importance • Boilers • Design and Construction of Boilers • Combustion of Fuels • Boiler Settings, Combustion Systems, and Auxiliary Equipment • Boiler Accessories • Operation and Maintenance of Boilers • Pumps • Steam Turbines, Condensers, and Cooling Towers • Operating and Maintaining Steam Turbines, Condensers, Cooling Towers, and Auxiliaries • Auxiliary Steam Plant Equipment • Environmental Control Systems • Waste-to-Energy Plants
Gas Turbine Engineering Handbook
Author: Meherwan P. BoycePublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080456898
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 956
Book Description
The Gas Turbine Engineering Handbook has been the standard for engineers involved in the design, selection, and operation of gas turbines. This revision includes new case histories, the latest techniques, and new designs to comply with recently passed legislation. By keeping the book up to date with new, emerging topics, Boyce ensures that this book will remain the standard and most widely used book in this field. The new Third Edition of the Gas Turbine Engineering Hand Book updates the book to cover the new generation of Advanced gas Turbines. It examines the benefit and some of the major problems that have been encountered by these new turbines. The book keeps abreast of the environmental changes and the industries answer to these new regulations. A new chapter on case histories has been added to enable the engineer in the field to keep abreast of problems that are being encountered and the solutions that have resulted in solving them. - Comprehensive treatment of Gas Turbines from Design to Operation and Maintenance. In depth treatment of Compressors with emphasis on surge, rotating stall, and choke; Combustors with emphasis on Dry Low NOx Combustors; and Turbines with emphasis on Metallurgy and new cooling schemes. An excellent introductory book for the student and field engineers - A special maintenance section dealing with the advanced gas turbines, and special diagnostic charts have been provided that will enable the reader to troubleshoot problems he encounters in the field - The third edition consists of many Case Histories of Gas Turbine problems. This should enable the field engineer to avoid some of these same generic problems
