Virtual Bookstore Citation Title THERMOGRAPHIC INSPECTION OF GENERATOR STATOR CORES FOR INCREASED RELIABILITY Author(s) healey,d. r. ; Corporate Author(s) Report Date 3/18/1900 Page Count 7 Abstract steam turbine-driven electric generators as manufactured by the largerotating apparatus division of westinghouse electric corporation are brieflydescribed. since these generators must operate for several decades in anelectric utility's fossil or nuclear electric generating station, highreliability is of utmost importance. the reliability and life of the generatorcould be adversely affected by abnormal heating of the stator core. to reducethis possibility, infrared scanning of the core, along with other manufacturingand quality controls are routinely performed. development of a trained force ofengineers and technicians who provide infrared scanning in the factory and atthe customer's site is also reviewed.
