Single valve control mode.
What does it do?
When used?
Advantages/disadvantages
- All GVs act as one, opening/closing together.
- Used: -<20% power - TV/GV testing -If GV demanded position differs substantially from actual position
- Single admits steam to full arc of HP turbine: more even heating, minimizes thermal stresses, less efficient due to throttling losses.
Sequential valve control mode.

When used?
Advantages/disadvantages
- GV-1, 2 and 3 open together, then GV-4 throttles to control turbine speed after GV 1-3 are full open.
