Steam Turbine Operation
This course is designed to enable operators, supervisors, and engineering personnel to safely operate a GE designed steam-turbine generator unit.
This course develops a background in steam turbine-generator operation, which will enable participants to properly analyze operating problems and take the necessary corrective action. The course will detail the turbine and generator equipment as well as their support systems. The training will include in-depth instruction on the start-up and loading activities, and the operational duties of the operator. Included in the course is an in-depth instruction on alarm troubleshooting and the use of the control interface (HMI).
Who should attend?
Operators, engineers, technicians, and administrative personnel of operating facilities as well those who may work in affiliated industries, who wish to gain an understanding of the day-to-day operation of GE steam turbines.
This course is intended for personnel unfamiliar with GE gas turbines. It should be considered as a “beginner” level course.
