Westinghouse Electric Corporation Nuclear Training Center manuals, 1982-1983.
This collection contains loose-leaf manuals published by the Nuclear Training Center of Westinghouse Electric Corporation on the thermodynamics of nuclear power plants. These manuals were part of a training program provided by Westinghouse for the education of Southern California Edison employees. The manuals include diagrams of equipment employed in the generation of power, instruction on how to use the equipment, and glossaries of related terminology. Topics addressed in the manuals are power plant performance, steam generators, turbine thermodynamics, radioactivity, and nuclear reactors.
The Westinghouse Electric Company provides fuel, services, technology, plant design, and equipment for the commercial nuclear electric power industry. It also offers training programs and other educational services in the area of nuclear technology. In the 1980s Southern California Edison employees who worked with nuclear electric power used the Westinghouse training manuals in this collection. Southern California Edison operates one nuclear electric power plant, the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS).
