Abstract

Though we generally think of steam turbines in terms of generator service for central station usage or for ship propulsion, countless thousands of multi-purpose units find varied applications in industrial plants as generator drives and as prime movers for mechanical equipment, that is, mechanical drive turbines. This paper is a general discussion of the lubrication problems incident to units in this usage.
