Modern power station practice. incorporating modern power system practice / Volume C, Turbines, generators and associated plant :

The introduction of new 500 MW and 660 MW turbine generator plant in nuclear, coal- and oil-fired power stations has been partly responsible for the increase in generating capacity of the CEGB over the last 30 years. This volume provides a detailed account of experience gained in the development, de...
