Description

The unit Governor Type 1 is a model of a steam turbine with IEEEG1 speed controller.

This block allows modelling a twin-shaft turbine and has two sets of fractions:

  • LP Fraction, K_2, LP Fraction, K_4, LP Fraction, K_6, LP Fraction, K_8 for low pressure (LP).

  • HP Fraction, K_1, HP Fraction, K_3, HP Fraction, K_5, HP Fraction, K_7 for high pressure (HP).

This diagram illustrates the general structure of the unit:
