Features: This book is divided into two parts. The first part, the turbine section, introduces the structures of various types of small and medium-sized turbines, the working principles of turbines, similarity laws, turbine characteristics, as well as phenomena such as cavitation, wear, and vibration and their mitigation measures. The second part, the turbine regulation and auxiliary equipment section, takes mechanical-hydraulic and electro-hydraulic governors commonly used in small and medium-sized power stations as examples, explaining the working principles, structures, and fault analysis and handling methods of the entire governor and its components. It also introduces the principles and methods of regulation guarantee calculations and describes the oil, gas, and water systems of hydropower stations. This book serves as a college-level textbook for electrical equipment, power engineering, and other related majors on turbines and their auxiliary equipment, and can also be referenced by technical personnel involved in the hydraulic machinery design, construction, and operation of hydropower stations.
