Basic design guidance is presented for fossil-fueled, steam-powered plants generating electricity or cogenerating electricity and steam. Criteria and design requirements are given for sizing plants, load shedding, use of cogeneration, environmental regulations and permitting, electric and steam generators, steam condensers and cooling water systems, auxiliary equipment, coal and ash handling, water supply, makeup and treatment, controls and instrumentation, testing, pollution control, corrosion, safety and fire protection, and various miscellaneous items.
The Electrical Science Fundamentals Handbook was developed to assist nuclear facility operating contractors provide operators, maintenance personnel, and the technical staff with the necessary fundamentals training to ensure a basic understanding of electrical theory,
terminology, and application. The handbook includes information on alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) theory, circuits, motors, and generators; AC power and reactive components; batteries; AC and DC voltage regulators; transformers; and electrical test instruments and measuring devices. This information will provide personnel with a foundation for understanding the basic operation of various types of DOE nuclear facility electrical equipment.
This Energy-Efficient Electric Motor Selection Hand book (Handbook) contains guidelines to help you identify motors that are candidates for replacement with energy-efficient electric motors. Using readily available information such as motor nameplate capacity, operating hours, and electricity price you can quickly determine the simple payback that would result from selecting and operating an energy-efficient motor
