41
Q

What are some of the basics that participants learn?

A

Dissembly, rigging, Taking and recording measurments, reassembling

42
Q

How old is the 65 Mega-watt Steam Turbine?

A

Almost 50 years old, Works on same operating principles as modern day turbines

43
Q

How is the steam produced in a Steam Turbine?

A

Coal is burned creating heat energy which radiates though pipes carrying water. Water is heated to create high pressure steam which is pushed though a small nozzle. As the steam is forced through that smallnozzle INCREASES velocity. This high velocity steam drives the wheel and creates mechanical energy.

44
Q

How long does it take participants to unbolt, take measurments, and reassemble the Steam Turbine?

A

It all has to be done including class time in a 40 hour class.
