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 successively. The number of new employees and production personnel in operational positions has rapidly increased. To improve technical training and skill assessment for operational and production personnel, experts have comprehensively revised the content of the 1996 edition and published the second edition of the "Technical Skill Assessment Question Bank for Local Power Plant Operators" (Second Edition), which is divided into five volumes: Boiler Operation, Steam Turbine Operation, Electrical Operation, Thermal Control and Operation, and Power Plant Chemistry. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the "Training Textbook for Local Power Plant Operational 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 fundamental 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, governing 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. Additionally, it covers steam turbine thermal expansion, thermal stress, off-design 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 focus on key areas, and is organized into five types of questions: fill-in-the-blank, true/false, multiple-choice, calculation, and short-answer questions, with answers provided. This book serves as the basis for job skill and professional skill training and assessment, as well as for technical skill 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, who have a high school or above education level.
