You will learn how condensing and non-condensing turbines work, how turbine speed is controlled, and how the sainst failure of other In Unit 2 you learn the construction of the turbine: rotor and easing, diaphragms, seals, and packing boxes, including. labyrinth and carbon-ring packing, You will learn the con- struction of the bearings and bearing combinations used in turbines, of singles and multi-valve governors, anil of the vil circulation system. In Unit 8, you will learn turbine operation and operating problems; the effects of pressure, heat, and steam condensa- tion; of uneven heating and cooling; lenkage of steam, vibra- tion; lubrication and lubrication problems; speed adjustment, instrumentation, and visual inspections to be conducted before startup, Through this understanding of turbine principles, constrn tion, and control, you will be better able tn assure the efficiency and safety of turbine operations,
