BETTER BOILER DESIGNS MAKE REHEAT STEAM TURBINE PLANTS MORE RELIABLE

Turbine manufacturers are investigating more economical propulsion machinery designs. This article evaluates the cost-effectiveness of various modifications, such as the reheat cycle, additional feedwater heaters, the Seajoule system, and combined cycles that can be retrofitted into existing power plants to reduce fuel consumption.
