Modern turbine-generators for smaller standardized nuclear power plant
Description
There is an emerging interest in small standardized nuclear power plants for worldwide commercial application, and these are of a size for which well proven compact steam turbines are ideally suited. With its experience, GEC ALSTHOM is well placed to provide turbines for small standardized nuclear systems up to the 600 MW(e) currently envisaged. At this low power level, full-speed turbines are the appropriate choice. The paper describes relevant experience with these turbines, and the corresponding thermodynamic cycles. 4 refs., 13 figs
