Thank you for the response. My guess was that GBR would have more power/cooling tower due to WBT etc, however the "justification" concludes that GBR has less i.e. GBR/AUS = 350/700 MW/tower.
Thank you for the response, though I concluded are similar according to the following buried in the original post:
The cooling towers are apparently dimensionally similar with a base diameter of ~ 100 metres according to my measurements using Google maps.
Can you please advise why power stations in United Kingdom - GBR apparently historically had more cooling capacity, natural draft cooling towers, than Australia – AUS?
A summary of the justification for evaluating the cooling capacity of GBR as more than AUS follows:
Benchmarking: I interpret...

I am unaware of the jurisdiction, though I propose that loose is unlikely to be according to the specifications I am familiar with - AS 4100.
1. The AS 4100 specifications, that I understand is to control nominal actions according to the standard’s assumptions, are attached, and

I speculate that the justification for what you heard was due generally using WRIM with secondary resistance to increase torque during starting etc. This is apparently not occurring for the WRIM currently installed, as the secondary resistance is stated to be shorted. A VSD in principle may be...

I cannot directly assist, though the the AS 3600:2018 Sup 1 includes a discussion, that includes the following reference: OSPINA C.E., ALEXANDER, S.D.B., Transmission of High Strength Concrete Column Loads Through Concrete Slabs, Structural Engineering Report No. 214, Department of Civil...
The detail has optimisation options, including:
1. Mixture of materials causes galvanic corrosion, as stated by others,
2. Self taping screws cause corrosion - consider fasteners etc if practicable,

he compliant mill (Figure 1(a)) targets a mean yield strength value well above the minimum requirement of

1. I speculate that 105.28 is the reducer's precise ratio, and the ratio that you calculated is an "approximate" e.g. a practical motor's angular speed will not be 1300 RPM etc, due to various reasons, including slip, and
2. A ratio of 105.8 exists according to the catalogues available...
The following also states background information regarding joint length, if I have understood the enquiry:
Figures 5.51 and 5.52 show that a 40 ksi allowable shear stress for A490 bolts would provide the needed margin for joint lengths up to about 50 in. For joints with a length exceeding 50...
Perhaps consider the suitability of the motor for use with VSD, despite that you have already etc:
Even though standard motors are commonly used successfully with PWM drives, drive duty places higher levels of dielectric
stress on the motor insulation than are normally present under sine wave...

1. I propose generally seal welded - the likelihood of holes etc is relatively low if the weld standards that I am aware of are used, and
