Abstract :
The installation of a new boiler and high-back-pressure non-condensing turbine which exhausts into 3 older turbines, reduced the fuel consumption at the Burlington station from 22,000–25,000 Btu per kwhr to about 15,000 Btu per kwhr. Electrical and mechanical details in the improvement of the station are described in this article.
