Description

Power Plant Fundamentals: Control and Measurement, is the sixth in a fourteen-book series by nHance Technologies. Control and Measurement introduces the concept of the control process.   Individual chapters are assigned for fundamental discussions on how pressure, flow, level and temperature are measured in power plants. Control and Measurement concludes with a discussion on reading the Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams to determine what measuring devices are used, and where they are located within the power plant. 

The Power Plant Fundamentals series provides a basic understanding of power plants by presenting an overview of what they do and how they work.  While the Power Plant Fundamentals series primarily focuses on coal fueled power plants, other plant types are introduced and the shared characteristics are applicable to virtually all types of power plants.  Interactive illustrations, various widgets, and section reviews are used throughout the series to provide a memorable, interactive, and user-friendly experience.
