Turbine Generator Upgrades

The turbine-generator manufacturers have been busy improving the quality of the steam path using many of the advanced analytical tools, the most effective of which is computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Your plant may not be brand new, but it is likely that the casings, bearings, controls, and other peripheral accessories have many more years of life in them. A new steam path may be an inexpensive way to reduce fuel costs and increase maximum capability.
