Governing mode change-over apparatus

摘要

A governing mode change-over apparatus of a steam turbine comprising a switching arrangement between a throttle governing mode and a nozzle governing mode, and an arrangement for controlling a load by selectively subjecting one of the steam control valves to load control during the governing mode switching, whereby the turbine is switched from one of the throttle and the nozzle governing modes to another with a limited fluctuation of the load.
