This five-day course is intended for operators, mechanics, supervisors and process and mechanical engineers with emphasis
on the practical aspects of machinery operation and maintenance.
The first three days in a classroom setting offer the following topics: steam turbine fundamentals, components and functions, applications, equipment variations, steam turbine control systems, detailed operation and maintenance procedures,
safety practices, disassembly, inspection, evaluation and reassembly sequence.
The two-day, hands-on lab gives participants an opportunity to apply knowledge previously learned in the Steam Turbine Operation & Maintenance Program. Students are required to make all necessary clearance checks, evaluate the condition of components, and keep accurate records of the equipment. Individual tasks are reinforced through various workstations to gain actual assembly/disassembly experience. Specific tasks include maintenance sequence review; maintenance safety; component removal; inspection; and installation of casing, thrust bearings, journal bearings, shaft seals, rotor, hand valves, nozzle rings, and governor assemblies. |
