Features: In the past decade, a large number of local power plants, industrial self-provided power plants, and thermal power plants with 6-10 MW thermal power generation units have been put into operation, leading to a rapid increase in new employees and production personnel in operational positions. To improve technical training and skill assessment for operational and production personnel, experts have comprehensively revised and published the second edition of "Technical Skill Assessment Question Bank for Local Power Plant Operators" (Second Edition) in accordance with the Ministry's regulations such as the "National Occupational Skill Assessment Specification for the Power Industry," the "Technical Skill Level Standards for Power Workers," and the "Operational Position Standards for Thermal Power Plants," as well as operational procedures. The content highlights key operational positions, emphasizes practical skills, and facilitates assessment and training. The book is divided into five volumes: Boiler Operation, Steam Turbine Operation, Electrical Operation, Thermal Control and Operation, and Power Plant Chemistry, and is designed to be used in conjunction with the "Operational Training Textbooks for Local Power Plant Positions" (Second Edition). This book is the "Technical Skill Assessment Question Bank for Local Power Plant Operators (Second Edition)" (Steam Turbine Operation), which is divided into three chapters. The content includes basic knowledge of thermal engineering and heat transfer, thermodynamic cycles and their thermal economy, the working principles of 6-10 MW steam turbines, cylinder and rotor structures, control systems, power-frequency electro-hydraulic digital control principles, centrifugal pumps, feedwater pumps, condensing equipment, heaters and deaeration equipment, cooling equipment, power plant pipelines, heating, water supply, and cooling, steam turbine thermal expansion, thermal stress, variable operating conditions, startup and shutdown, operation and maintenance, and accident handling, as well as the operation and accident handling of auxiliary equipment. The book covers a wide range of content with a strong focus, and is written according to the three skill levels—initial, intermediate, and advanced—for main and auxiliary equipment operational positions of steam turbines. It includes five types of questions: fill-in-the-blanks, true-or-false, multiple-choice, calculations, and short-answer questions, with answers provided. This book serves as the basis for skill and occupational skill training, assessment, and technical level promotion for production personnel, workers, technicians, management personnel, and relevant teaching and research personnel in local power plants, industrial self-provided power plants, and thermal power plants with 6-10 MW thermal power generation units, as well as steam turbine equipment operators with senior high school or higher education backgrounds.
