About this Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT)

This 5 half-day Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) course will cover all aspects of steam turbine design including blade design and material, operating principles, sizing and selection procedures, inspection, diagnostics, maintenance and overhaul of steam turbines, steam turbine start-up and shutdown procedures, surveillance and health monitoring of steam turbines, governing systems as well as all the components, instrumentation and control systems of steam turbines, and address root cause analysis and solutions to steam turbine failures.

All possible failure modes of steam turbine components and the maintenance required to prevent them will be discussed in detail. Examples of recent steam turbine failure incidents attributed to design defects, processing and manufacturing deficiencies, assembly errors, off-design or unintended service conditions, and maintenance deficiencies will also be covered in detail.

This course will also provide updated information in respect to all the methods used to enhance the availability, reliability and maintainability of steam turbines, increase the efficiency and longevity of steam turbines, and improve the rotor dynamic stability.

It will also cover in detail all steam turbine valves, jacking oil system, turning gear, turbine supervisory system, steal turbine monitoring technology, validation, and verification tests, performance testing of steam turbines and steam turbine codes especially ASME PTC6.
