โฆ Synopsis
The operation and maintenance of large generating units is just as complex as their design and manufacture. Based on the many years' experience gained from the daily operation of the British Electricity Supply System, this work conveys the lessons learned in developing the new techniques and provides a guide on the practical aspects of operating and maintaining large power stations, especially those with large generating units. Areas covered include planning and thermal-efficiency monitoring, the theory of large generator design, aspects of the operation of the generator and its auxiliary circuits, and safety and safe working practices.
