Technical Note from Dr. Mel Giberson, P.E. - TRI President
Although deregulating power has reduced generating costs, the recent major power outages in North America confirms that the power grid reliability has been compromised. In response, generating plants should be:
- Implementing measures to protect against damage during such an outage
- Re-engineering for faster restarts with less complications
Turbo Research, Inc. offers proven solutions for increasing the ability of power generation equipment to survive outages and stabilize distribution systems.
-
"State of the Art" Emergency Lube Oil Systems for all types of rotating machinery
-
Journal and thrust bearings that are more resistant to short term interruption of the lube oil supply
-
Motor driven boiler feed pumps with variable speed geared fluid drives
-
Synchronous condensers converted from existing generators (all sizes) with independent starting capability
