    Generator Reverse Power Relay Testing

    The following is a new procedure that was given to me to perform the testing: After unloading the generator let the 32 Relay (Reverse Power) arm itself; which is accomplished by sitting unloaded for 45 seconds and adjusting the power factor setting of .97 to .99 on the lag side, this will trip...

    Steam Jet Air Ejector problems.

    We have a "Z" and "Y" stage steam jet air ejector on our 160 MW Unit. The design steam conditions for the SJAE are 265 psi @ 900 degf. At low loads we have been losing vacuum to the point of putting on the "hogger" and almost tripping the unit. I have noticed that during these low loads that...

    Laser alignment Tools

    My company is looking into purchasing their own laser alignment tools to aid in-house alignments on large machinery. I'm interested in who has done this, what products you have chosen and why. They are looking to spend 10-15k.

    Backpressure Calculation

    VPL The only change was that the transmitter in question was calibrated during the shutdown. So (in there words, not mine) it was always out of calibration. I have the books whipped out but I'm not having much luck with the calculations. Never said I was a good engineer! LOL TD2K Two of...

    Backpressure calculation

    I work in a 160 MW coal fired Power Plant. The turbine is a condensing turbine with a surface condenser. After our last outage it was noticed that one of our three backpressure indications started reading 2 inHg different than the others. The one that is reading different is taken 30 feet...
