  • Abstract
    Considerations in the application and matching of two-pole cylindrical rotor generators to gas turbines for peaking service are discussed. Various criteria are reviewed, including generator thermal rating and limitations, gas turbine ratings, altitude factors, cyclic operating duty, rapid loading considerations, generator ventilation and air filtration, noise, steady-state and transient performance, and special generator features.
