Since I worked for the Los Angeles DWP for 34 years in DWP generating stations at the one minute mark I recognized what appears to be an early version of the General Electric model F2 turbine generator. This model of General Electric Turbine Generator was built in the 1950s. This model operated at 1800 psi steam pressure and 1000 degree Main Steam temperature and 1000 degree Reheat Steam Temperature. This turbine generator was good for about 170 megawatts of power output. The front end of this Turbine Generator looks a lot like the Front End of Valley Generating Station units 3 and 4, which I operated and have long since been deactivated. Scattergood Generating Station units 1 and 2 were a late 1950s version of this model that had a number of improvements. It looks like this Turbine Generator was built in the early 1950s to add additional generating capacity to this 1930s Art Deco Power Plant. I also recognized a later 1980s Bently Nevada Turbine Generator monitoring system with turbine vibration monitors. This shows that this Generating Station was still in service into the later 1980s. The Scattergood 1 and 2 later version of this Turbine Generator is still in service and is still used when needed for extra electricity generation.
@@davidgrisez Crazy to go back in and see these massive vertical units only producing 5 MW or so of power, then decades later getting 170 MW out of a single unit.
@@Abandoned_480p From what I know a 170 megawatt steam turbine generator was a very large unit for the 1950s. By the early 1970s there were steam turbine generators that could generate 460 megawatts. As time passed steam turbine generator units became larger and more powerful.
That's what I was trying to say, the power output has increased so rapidly over time. Reminds me of these massive vertical units that were held at a plant in Boston, that only produced 5 MW. But at the time it was cutting edge
@@Abandoned_480p I can add some additional information about the increase in unit sizes. The size of electricity generating units eventually hit a couple of limiting factors where they stopped getting bigger. One factor is that electricity utility companies must have enough units on the line to cover their largest unit tripping off the line. The other factor was the size of the machinery that has to be transported by railroad train and road truck. The largest units that I am aware of are the three nuclear power units of Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant in Arizona which are about 1,300 megawatts each. As far as I know electricity generating units do not get any larger than this.
Damn this shit hilarious bro🔥
@@PhantomSerenade We had a great time and it shows 😅
those gestures were offensive using the middle finger like that lol

😂 love you buddy

i clicked 1080p but it still looks like its only 480p can you fix this?
