Sentence examples for turbine driving from inspiring English sources
In a turbine driving an external load, part of the expansion frequently takes place in a high-pressure turbine that drives only the compressor while the remaining expansion takes place in a separate, "free" turbine connected to the load.
A turbine driving an electric generator must run at constant speed.
The scheme essentially consists of a vertical axis wind turbine driving a self-excited induction generator connected via an asynchronous (AC DC AC) link to a synchronous generator driven by a diesel engine.
This may cause mechanical problems because the turbine driving the boiler feed pump was designed for lower parameters of the incoming steam.
Under low loads of the unit, there may then be not enough steam fed into the turbine driving the feed pump which necessitates an introduction of additional steam into it.
In simple terms smart monitoring provides signals to a local governor that regulates the turbine driving torque by controlling the steam supply to it, and hence the speed of each generator is maintained.
1938 Queen Mary to Arrive NEW YORK — With its 200,000-horsepower turbines driving it through the Atlantic waves at record-breaking speed for the second successive day, the 81,235-ton Cunard White Star liner Queen Mary is expected to nose past Ambrose Light, aspiring for the North Atlantic Blue Riband, tomorrow [Aug. 8] at 1 30 a.m.
A novel solar power plant concept is presented, based on the use of a coupled network of hybrid solar-dish micro gas-turbines, driving a centralized heat recovery steam generator and steam-cycle, thereby seeking to combine the high efficiency of the solar dish collector with a combined-cycle power block.
On the other hand, the efficiency of turbines driving BFPs has not changed much.
In a gas turbine, when air is compressed and ignited by fuel, the expansion of the heated combustion gases passes through both gas producing and power turbines, driving the compressor and the electric generator.
