OBJECTIVES:

By the end of the course, delegates will:
  • familiarize with basic gas laws governing plant operation
  • familiarize with the performance and operational aspects of gas and steam turbines and different types of compressor as used in petro-chemical plants.
  • be presented with an understanding of the control and protection systems.
  • be presented the understanding of auxiliary equipment and systems necessary for continual operation of plant machinery.
  • be able to calculate the effects of changes upon machine performance.
