Features: This textbook is compiled in accordance with the requirements of the "Occupational Skill Appraisal Specification for the Power Industry" of the People's Republic of China for the vocational skill training of thermal power generation. The textbook highlights practical operational skills as the main focus, closely integrating relevant professional theory with production practice. It reflects the current level of thermal power generation technology development in China and embodies the principle of production-oriented practice. The textbook is basically organized into separate volumes based on the "Appraisal Specification" for the thermal power generation operation and maintenance profession. The entire series consists of 15 volumes, covering the vocational skill training of nearly 40 relevant job types as specified in the "Appraisal Specification." For the key and difficult points in the textbook, supplementary "Review Questions and Solutions" will be published for each volume. The authors and reviewers of this textbook are technical personnel with long-term experience in production lines, possessing a solid theoretical foundation and extensive practical and training experience. This volume, "Controlled Operation of Power Plants," includes training content for the job types of centralized inspection and centralized on-duty operators. The main content includes: the working principles, types, and structures of main units in a unit group; auxiliary equipment and systems of unit groups; pumps and fans, common valves, and startup procedures of unit groups; inspection and operation of auxiliary equipment and systems before startup of unit groups; normal maintenance and testing of auxiliary equipment and systems, as well as abnormal causes and handling principles; the structure and characteristics of boilers; unit groups and power systems; the structure and characteristics of steam turbine units; the structural features of generators and transformers, as well as protection configurations; computer control systems, startup characteristics, and variable operating conditions of unit groups; startup and shutdown, operation and maintenance, and operation management of unit groups; and accident handling. This textbook serves as the vocational skill appraisal training material for thermal power generation and the production technology training material for thermal power generation sites. It can also be used for technical personnel in thermal power generation and teaching purposes in technical schools.
