Abstract
During the last few years there has been a very rapid increase in the rating of turbine generators. That these ratings might be possible, a large amount of investigation has been necessary; and this paper covers, in a general way, some of the problems that have been studied and solved by the engineers of the Westinghouse E. & M. Co. The present status of the design of turbine generators is given, and what the future developments must be if still larger generators are to be built.
