Since the end of World War II, the chronic requirement for power and yet more power has become a problem of international rather than purely national interest. Throughout the world, the increasing tempo of industrialization and the general improvements in living standards have created a situation that can only be countered by bold, far-sighted planning and adventurous engineering. Hence, the now-familiar emphasis on nuclear power stations and hydro-electric schemes. Carbon and its numerous applications in nuclear engineering will no doubt be a subject in some future edition of this publication. This article is concerned with the part carbon-graphitic glands play in the running of that essential Io a nation’s industrial and domestic power needs - the hydro-electric power station.To date, nobody has discovered, produced or invented a material for turbine glands that can better carbon. For this reason, carbon is widely employed in this capacity, except in one or two countries like Italy and the U.S.A. where soft packing glands arc preferred. Carbon glands arc reliable. can be easily fitted in comparison to other types. do not need frequent adjustments. and, very important, do not damage or wear the turbine shaft. The glands manufactured by Assam Carbon Products Limited are highly-specialized products developed in association and collaboration with prominent turbine constructors throughout the world. They have won for the Company a substantial percentage of the world’s markets for such equipment. So far, glands have been supplied for shaft diameters up to 1170 mm. It is hoped, however. that the Company will shortly embark upon a contract for the largest. Most ambitious hydro-electric scheme in the world, where shafts of 1350 mm diameter will have to be sealed.
