| Abstract | Steam turbine valves are the most important components before a steam turbine for the admission and control of steam flow. Steam turbine valve configurations can be all in one body or as individual valves for the large units, for the main stop (throttle) and control functions for each section of the steam turbine. Today’s thermal power plants for drum or once-through type supercritical boilers produce very high temperature steam in the final superheat and reheat section of 1055 °F or higher requiring special boiler tube metal alloys, some of which are subject to steam oxidation as in austenitic steels. The oxidation material is mainly in the form of iron oxide or magnetite which is subject to exfoliation. The exfoliated oxide material is carried over to the steam turbine valves and to the high and intermediate pressure turbines. The effect of exfoliated oxide material in valve and turbine components is to cause solid particle erosion (SPE) and therefore shortening the life of those parts due to damage. As time goes by if valves are not tested and do not meet their inspection and maintenance schedule they will build up oxidation material to form scale material called blue blush and eventually they stick and will not shut properly. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
