About this document
Preventing Water in Steam Turbine Oils by Ilham Surya Hadi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses how water contamination can occur in the lube oil systems of steam turbines. Small amounts of water contamination from gland leakage can accumulate over time and cause corrosion or rusting of metal components.
