Turbine Steam Path Maintenance & Repair, Volume II

Mr. Sanders is to be congratulated for his dedication to the mechanical engineering profession by contributing this well written and thorough work for the benefit of the entire power generation industry. --Thomas H. McCloskey, Manager, Turbomachinery, Electric Power Research Institute

In the second volume of his two-book set on turbine steam paths, William P. Sanders, P. Eng., turns his expert analysis to repair and refurbishment options currently accessible that will keep turbines operating with high levels of availability and improved efficiency. Also provided are details on estimating financial penalties associated with leakage from damaged turbines, which can reduce the cost of power. A full analysis of quality and inspection of manufactured elements to replace damaged components is included as well.

Volume 2 incorporates photographs, tables, equations, and examples to provide an excellent simplification of this complicated topic. Taken together with Volume 1, this set is sure to be an invaluable resource readers turn to many times during their careers!
