Power Generation Handbook Second Edition

Power Generation Handbook Second Edition Fundamentals of Low-Emission, High-Efficiency Power Plant Operation by Philip Kiameh. The Handbook provides detailed information about all types of power plants including gas turbines, steam power plants, co-generation, combined-cycle power plants, and solar and wind power plants. The book covers all of the components of these power plants such as compressors, gas turbines, steam turbines, wind turbines, solar photovoltaic cells, combustors, heat recovery steam generators, governing systems, deaerators, condensers, feedwater heaters, pumps, lubricating systems, absorption chillers, transformers, and generators in detail.
