- Power Plant Professionals seeking high growth in career
- Interview preparations for power plant jobs
So far the books written on thermal plants describe mostly the reheat type units. These books are intended for technical personnel working in utility plants but, again, most of them deal predominantly with the theoretical aspects of turbines and their auxiliaries and lack in practical side of the subject.
The aim is to give following benefits to the reader:
- To provide an in-depth knowledge of plant and equipment to the plant professionals associated with industrial boilers and turbines. It is to be noted that most of the industrial thermal units (like captive power plants attached to main technological units) are of non-reheat type.
- To cover the practical aspects of thermal power stations missing in most of the books available in the market. The book describes in details the constructional features of the plant and equipment, their operation and maintenance and overhauling procedures, performance monitoring as well as troubleshooting.
- To cover the theoretical aspects of a thermal unit necessary to be known to the professionals for thorough understanding of the systems involved. This knowledge would assist them:
- In selecting the plant and equipment suitable to their requirement
- In operating and maintaining the plant with best efficiency, availability and reliability
The book is a must for those working professionals who aspire for a fast growth of their professional career. It will also be of immense help to the personnel preparing for boiler proficiency examinations.
